Thus - to sum up - A small amount of reproductive wood increases vocalizations and other conspicuous reactions - but it takes a larger amount of reproductive wood to inhibit gregariousness.

NOTE:  In case it is not clear from the above account, there does not seem to have been any rain the Unduavi area yesterday.  Thus many or most of the birds seem to have "regressed" to non-reproductive wood.

Going to take a look at the Botanical Garden in La Paz this afternoon 12,175 ft. Arrive 4:32 pm. Raining

[[margin in red]] CC Carbo [[/margin]]
Quite a good area. At least 2 pairs of CC's. 1 pair of Carbos, and miscellaneous other species.  Including Red-caps, Orange-bills, and Thrushes (at least the Black - possibly others). Fauna generally quite comparable to that of the garden area of lower La Paz. [[underlined]] No [[/underlined]] trace of mixed flocks.  SEE ALSO TODAY'S NOTES ON DIGLOSSINI 

ADDITION:  At 5:04 pm today, I saw an Andean Sparrow carrying a huge strand of nm. So something is certainly breeding here

Going to work in old Myst area. Arrive 5:31  Scattered cloud in sky but no rain or fog.

Going to go down to the area where I saw the white moustached Myst, and the DC-ing Bl & Or Stripe, the last time I was here.
