SEE TODAY'S NOTES ON MIXED DIGLOSSINI (especially for a description of a very large mixed flock at the upper end of the path to Cilluntincara).

[[margin in red]] Sitti [[/margin]]
Observation of the large flock today confirmed by my previous impressions. Large flocks here seem to be partly compound, including recognizable sub-groups. The large brightly colored tanager sub-group (e.g. Firebellies, Montane GMT's, etc.) seems to be the most distinct. Divisions within the warbler, Conebill, [[underlined]] Hemisprugus[[?]][[/underlined]], ...[[?]] sub-group are less easy to identify or categorize. Within this sub-group, it would seem that the roles of several species (warblers and  [[underlined]] Hemisprugus[[?]][[/underlined]]) are partly "interchangeable". Thus, for instance, this morning the furnarid[[?]] LXX was first associated with[[underlined]] B. vigroisistus[[?]][[/underlined]] and then disappeared from my view-[[underlined]]perhaps [[/underlined]] following [[underlined]] B. vigroisistus[[?]][[/underlined]].
