This afternoon, going to work along lower border ruins of Machu Picchu itself (the area where I watched [[male symbol] Bari a couple of years ago). Arrive 3:00 pm. Clear. Hot. This area is in shadow now. 7800 ft. according to my altimeter now.

Everything very quiet. Just a few hummingbird noises.

[[margin in red]] Bari [[/margin]]

Reach beginning of path to what I called "Huarna Picchu" a couple of years ago (according to sign now it is "Yua Picchu" 7925 ft, 4:15 pm. Going to walk down path a little.

4:55. See a single Sooty Thrush fly by. then see a single Synallaxis type (gray body, rufous wings, cam, and tail) alone. In bamboo scrub.

Leaving 5: pm.
