Brun [[in red]]  7:30. See a single Brun. Alone. Feeding on insects from leaves small bushes low dry scrub. (This is not far from where the Thlypopsis was seen earlier -- on the opposite side, of the Thlypopsis, from the CC.)

7:48. See another single thrush. Alone. Definitely same species seen yesterday above Tarma.

8:04. See a single House Wren and a single Andean Sparrow in same bush. Apparently ignoring one another.

Brun [[in red]] 8:07. See a single Brun (not same individual as before). Feeding on pink trumpet shaped flowers which seem to be the same species favored by diglomnes [[??]] all over the Andes

[[drawing of trumpet flower, colors of each part labeled]]

This Brun is apparently alone, except for several hummingbirds [[IV in red in margin]] of different species within distance of 10-20 yards. Several [[underlined]] Patagona gigas [[//underlined]]. Also one blacluck [[??]] hummingbird with white thighs (probably plumed), no IV on the hummingbird list. No obvious reaction between the Brun and any of the hummingbirds. But the Brun flies on almost immediately [[underlined]] and then the IV hummingbird visits all the trumpet-shaped flowers where the Brun had fed and sticks its bill in the holes made by the Brun [[//underlined]] !!

8:17. See another House Wren alone.

CC [[in red in margin]]  See a pair of CC's [[W written above]] alone. Feeding in low open scrub. Apparently getting insects. (These birds also looked very blue gray).

Brun [[in red in margin]] A few minutes later see a single Brun 20 yards from where [[CC in red in margin]] the CC's had been (the CC's are no longer visible).

Some distance further on, see a single House Wren singing alone.

8:37 See a single thrush alone. [[underlined]] This seems to be same species as [[//underlined]]
