Mixed Diglossini, Apr. 15, 1965 II  [[circled]] 37 [[/circled]]

Altho certainly not a peaceful one.

[[left margin]] Laf [[/left margin]]
As far as I can tell, there are no Lafs in these trees. 
    
Rain stopped 6:32 am.

[[left margin]] Scan [[/left margin]]
None of the hummingbirds in this tree is C. coruscans

Activity in tree definitely lessening now 6:37 am. And I haven't seen a Blue Diglossa in the tree for some time. 

[[left margin]] Coer 24 Humer [[/left margin]]
6:41. Pair of birds ✓✓24 joins group in trees. At least one of the joiners is definitely a Coer (or, at least, what I always have called Coer before. Distinctive gestalt (looks coarser, probably larger, than Cy). Feeds half way up tree. Not attacked by Humers. 

[[left margin]] Humer [[/left margin]]
One Humer attacks and chases a small hummingbird.

[[left margin]] Coer  Humer [[/left margin]]
Definitely a pair of Coers in tree. One or two Humers follow(s) Coers And apparently supplants them once or twice  But the Coers never retreat far or fast. I.E. the following of the Humers probably is purely hostile. Probably because they want to attack the Coers but are somewhat inhibited (it is my opinion that the Coers are larger than the Humers). Only every once in a while does a Humer screw up its courage enough to supplant. 
    
Rain again 6:50 am

[[left margin]] Humer [[/left margin]]
A Humer attacks and chases a medium-sized hummingbird.

6:50 - 7:00 am. Activity in tree increases again, when the rain becomes harder for a while.

[[left margin]] Humer  Coer [[/left margin]] 
The Humers certainly do not attack and supplant the Coers as relatively frequently as they do other Humers. I.E. I have seen Humers ignore Coers 5 ft away, and then attack other Humers 10 ft away. 

[[left margin]] Coer [[/left margin]]
The Coers do not stay in the Eucalypts as consistently as at
