Dubusia still Singing quite frequently. Probably the same individual every time. It probably [[underlined]] is [[/underlined]] in reproductive condition.

PR – [[underlined]] B. nigrocristatus [[/underlined]] apparently (from sounds) still together, not far from where last seen.

A couple[[2 pencil, 2 blue checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 6 [[/circled]] of  Firebellies  move through low scrub, 2 – 4 feet up. Quiet. Definitely alone.

Then see a couple of Sooty Thrushes. High in Eucalypts. Alone.

Then see a pair [[2 pencil, 2 blue checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 8 [[/circled]] of Firebellies alone in another Eucalypt.

[[left margin in red]] Laf [[/left margin]]

See single Laf [[1 pencil, 1 blue checkmark]] [[circled in blue]] 9 [[/circled]] alone, 2 ft up in fern scrub. Quite silent.

7:08. Starting up hill. Hear Dubusia Singing. Then [[2 blue, 2 pencil checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 11 [[/circled]] [[underlined]] 2 [[/underlined]] Dubusias fly out of low bush, region sparse low scrub. Definitely alone.

7:16. Slightly up hill. See a couple [[2 pencil, 2 blue checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 13 [[/circled]]
more Humers alone. Silent.

7:23. Further up. Region slightly lusher scrub. Catch brief glimpse pair [[2 pencil, 2 blue checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 15 [[/circled]] White-beards. Can't tell if they are alone or not.

Rain almost stopped now. Wind has died down. Then, of course, rain starts in again – just as I reach area where mixed flock seen yesterday afternoon! Nothing much visible now. I hear both White beards and [[underlined]] B. nigrocristatus [[/underlined]] at different times in different parts of the area. Also catch glimpses several Black [[3 blue checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 18 [[/circled]]
Diglossas alone.

Fog coming in 7:45 a.m.

On way back down hill, see group 2 [[2 pencil, 2 blue checkmarks]] Whitebeards and [[1 pencil, 1 blue checkmark]] 1 Black 

[[left margin in blue]] III NHO [[/left margin]]

Diglossa 2 ft up, in low thick scrub. They probably are the Whitebeards seen earlier.  Whitebeards [[2 pencil, 2 blue checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 20 [[/circled]] move off. [[1 blue, 1 pencil checkmark]] [[circled in blue]] 21 [[/circled]] Diglossa does [[underlined]] not [[/underlined]] follow.

8:20 a.m. Down where PR – [[underlined]] nigrocristatus [[/underlined]] flock seen earlier this morning. [[underlined]] nigrocristatus [[/underlined]] [[2 pencil, 2 blue checkmarks]] [[circled in blue]] 23 [[/circled]] still around. PR's not visible. Hear [[1 one pencil, one blue checkmark]] [[circled in blue]] 24 [[/circled]] Whitebeards same general area. A minute later, hear Firebellies [[1 pencil, 1 blue checkmark]] [[circled in blue]] 25 [[/circled]] 50 yds up hill. I doubt if this assemblage is really a mixed flock!
