[[circled]] 29 [[/circled]] greenish-golden buff in scapular region! ( I can't see scarlet thighs either; but this is not necessarily significant) In tree with Goldfinches and Spocophilas. But it doesn't seem to be paying any attention to them. Nor vice versa. The "pseudo Scarlet-thigh" ("PST") eventually flies off; but the other birds don't follow. The PST was feeding by picking at leaves, apparently looking for insects. 20 - 30 ft above ground. Is the PST a [[underlined]] Tangara [[/underlined]]? Incidentally, the whole area where I am working now is largely pasture. Only occasional gardens, "hedges", and other patches of scrub and trees. Surrounding hills are covered by forest; but they are rather far away. Go quite far up hill 7:45. See some more single Sooty Thrushes That is all. So start down hill again. [[margin, in red]] BQ [[/margin]] 8:23 Hear what may be BQ Singing. Determinate, trill-like phrases "Tee tee tee tee tee tee tee tee" type. [[underlined]] High [[/underlined]] in Eucalypt. 8:40. See another large Eucalypt in bloom. Quite a lot of hummingbirds are feeding on the flowers; and disputing among themselves. But apparently no diglossies! Leaving 8:50 am. [[In red]]NOTES: I.[[/in red]] The PST is Tangara cyanicolles. [[In red]]II.[[/in red]] [[underlined]] Hemispingus trifasciatus [[/underlined]] does not occur here. The birds which I have been calling [[underlined]] atro-pileus [[/underlined]] must really be [[underlined]] atro-pileus [[/underlined]]! [[In red]]III[[/in red]] I think that [[underlined]] all [[/underlined]] the birds I have been calling [[underlined]] Tangara labradoroides [[/underlined]] (certainly all the birds I have been calling by that name this year) are really [[in red]] Tangara nigrovirides.
