[[circled]] 12 [[/circled]] [[underlined]] Complete overlap. [[/underlined]] But flock apparently not present! I think two of the local [[margin,in red]] Laf 30 [[/margin]] Lafs are engaged in a boundary dispute. Then suddenly one [[margin,in red]] Cy [[/margin]] Laf flies into same tree as Cy! Only 4 ft away. Cy singing. Laf silent. Laf just looks at Cy. Cy continues singing for perhaps half a minute. Then Cy flies away. Laf f ^[[right arrow]] Cy! Apparently "escorting". But then the two birds separate. [[margin,in red]] Cy [[/margin]] Cys singing again 7:18. Then a Laf starts to sing again in distance. Complete overlaps. But apparently random. [[margin,in red]] Laf [[/margin]] Can't see that one species is stimulating the other. Both species moving around a lot. Their territories still seem [[margin,in red]] Cy [[/margin]] to be completely or almost completely overlapping. And I have seen both species [[margin,in red]] Laf [[/margin]] feed on same tubular yellow and cup-shaped red flowers. Also, around here, they both seem to be ranging thru same heights vegetation (1 - 20 ft - i.e. the complete range available here). Overlaps songs still continuing 7:20. [[margin,in red]] Cy [[/margin]] I think Cys show a tendency to retreat whenever a Laf sings particularly closely (within 20 or 30 ft). Laf certainly the "dominant" species here. 7:24. Fight between 2 Lafs. With "Seeet" and "Tuck" notes. [[margin,in red]] Laf [[/margin]] Everything quiet 7:30. [[margin,in red]] Laf [[/margin]] Then Laf sings [[underlined]] This seems to stimulate Cys to sing [[/underlined]] ! Overlap. Then Laf shuts up. [[margin,in red]] Cy [[/margin]] Cy continues. Then Cy shuts up. Going down road 7:32, to see if I can find a mixed flock. [[margin,in red]] LAf [[/margin]] No! Just as I start to go, complications arise. Laf sings
