Mixed Diglossini, Sept. 27, 1962, II 

[[left margin]]Bari[[/left margin]]
ignores small green, blue-tailed hummer, feeding in same bush, on same flowers, only a few feet away.

[[left margin]]BQ Bari[[/left margin]]
At the time this bird was around, AA was singing (not very vigorously) in tree about 30-40 ft away. Did not stop singing.
The Bari left after a few minutes. AA began to sing more vigorously afterwards, but this may have been coincidence

[[left margin]]BQ[[/left margin]]
[[image: sketch of bird]]] 
AA long posture.

[[left margin]]BQ  Bari[[/left margin]]
AA is certainly not accompanied by mate.
I wonder how many ♀ or juv Baris there are around here? It is beginning to look as if ♂'s may feed in other areas (other environments????).

[[left margin]]BQ[[/left margin]]
Hear another BQ (definitely not AA) uttering song phrases of doublets and triplets. Perhaps this is characteristic of (at least high intensity) songs of local population?

[[left margin]]BQ[[/left margin]]
Pair of BQ's feeding in some Eucalyptus or Eucalyptus-like tree. One or both utter "Zhee Zhee Zhee-zee Zhee Zhee ....." notes. Then one chases the other briefly. Then separate. Continue notes for a while, gradually running down. Quite ignore hummers feeding on flowers tree only a few feet or inches away. (One of these hummers is same species that was ignored by Bari earlier. So this hummer definitely feeds on same flowers as both BQ and Bari)
