Mixed Diglossini, May 27, 1965, II. (26) distinguish individual patterns. But, as far as I can tell, the chorus does not include either Slate-throats or Diglossini. ^[[Cy]] Hear first Cy Songs 5:38 a.m. Songs coming from same place as yesterday. Each phrase composed 2-4 "Tsit" Intro Notes followed by long rapid Twitter. No other Diglossine or Whitestart audible at the time. The bird utters a [[underlined]] lot [[/underlined]] of phrases in rapid succession. It is partly cloudy now, but it looks as if sun may come out. ^[[Cy 43]] Cy obviously singing high in tall mature tree. Apparently 30-40 ft up. Still going strong 5:44. Now, 5:45, there seem to be 2 ^[[W]] Cys singing. Both in tall trees. Probably 100 ft apart. Both uttering similar phrases (as before). Apparently [[underlined]] alternating [[/underlined]] phrases. Little or no overlap. Then shut up. ^[[Cy]] [[underlined]] Immediately, [[/underlined]] I hear what sounds like Yellow-faced Whitestart in distance. Then 1 Cy starts Singing again. Presumed Yellow-face continues. [[underlined]] Several partial or complete overlaps. [[/underlined]] Presumed Yellow-face shuts up. Both Cys resume Singing. Some overlaps between Songs different Cys 5:47. Cys shut up. Presumed Yellow-face Sings again. (Actually, I am quite [[underlined]] certain [[/underlined]] that this "presumed" Yellow-face really is a Yellow-face. Songs brief but [[underlined]] quite [[/underlined]] typical of the species.) ^[[Cy]] Yellow-face shuts up. Cys Sing again. Actually, there may be at least 3 Cys in this area. Yellow-face sings again. Partial overlap. Yellow-face shuts up. Cys continue. Cys shut up. [[underlined]] Slate-throat [[/underlined]] Sings. Shuts up. Yellow-face Sings. Shuts up. Cy Sings. Yellow face starts again. Partial overlap. Yellow-face shuts up. Cys continue Singing. ^[[Cy]] This sort of thing repeated frequently during next few minutes. There obviously is [[underlined]] some [[/underlined]] tendency for Cy and Yellow-face to avoid overlapping Songs. But at least one Yellow-face sometimes seems to be "stimulated" by sound
