[[circled]] 39 [[/circled]] 6:10 am. 8550 ft. Got very poor view mixed flock top AS trees. Includes at least ^[[2 check marks above]] 2 [[underline]] Th. ^[[circled 1 above]] cyanocephala [[/underline]], ^[[one check mark above]] 1 ^[[circled 2 above]] Blue & black, ^[[1 check mark above]] 1 ^[[circled 3 above]] Whitestart, ^[[5 check marks above]] 5 or 6 other birds of ^[[circled 4 above]] 2 ^[[circled 5 above]] or 3 other species. Highly integrated. Going down hill. Moderately noisy. Whitestart sings occasionally. NODWA. Everything is dead quiet 6:35am. 6:41. 8425 ft. See a single ^[[1 check mark above]] Synallaxis (gray body, rufous cap, wings, and tail) in bamboo scrub. Apparently alone. CORRECTION: There also is a pair of ^[[2 check marks above]] P2's, 10 ft away same scrub Probably forming loose "flock" with Synallaxis. All birds quite silent 6:54 8390 ft.

Includes at least ^[[2 check marks above]] 2 Whitestarts, ^[[1 check mark above]] 1 Whitestripe, ^[[1 check mark above]] 1 bird of another species (probably cotinga XIX).
