Approximately at same level as station #2, see a single✓✓✓ [[black, green, blue checks]] Glor feeding very low in open scattered bushes (area of rock and sand slide) Near group 94✓✓[[both green]] ✓✓[[blue]] White-bearded Flycatchers, but apparently not paying any attention to them.

[[left margin]] BQ [[/left margin]]
In late afternoon, walk around Hotel garden. BQ's still around 5:00 pm. One bird singing. Groups of 2, 3, or 4 phrases e.g. "Teee ta-ta-seeeeeee teeee-ta-ta-seeeeeee teee-ta-ta-seeeee-eerrr" [[wave drawing under last eerrr]]. Also just loud, jumbled, "rattle-twitters." In between feeding on bright orange red flowers of trees which are in bloom everywhere now ([possibly a species of Erythrina)
[[left margin]] BQ [[/left margin]]
5:13 pm. Possible dispute between 2 BQ's? Two birds flitting about a couple of feet apart in an Erythrina. One of them does repeated Bowing. Moderately extreme but somewhat irregular. 
[[image:sketch of bird postures]]
High posture sometimes quite an extreme st. Low posture more or less as drawn. Apparently little or no Pivoting: Probably WF's & TF's, but nothing like Q or real horizontal stretch

Transcription Notes:
Different check colors may mean something important to researcher. I believe we should designate color. Just my opinion. *does it stand for ft. - feat? Meaning something hard to do. Or st. - for stature? Tend to think ft. because first letter looks like an f.
