Mixed Diglossini, Mar. 12, 1966, II. [[circled]] 32 [[/circled]] [[margin]] Laf [[/margin]] 6:18. Finally hear first (brief) Laf Song. Far up hill. Overlap orig Rfl's at random. Laf shuts up. [[margin]] Laf [[/margin]] 6:22. See single Laf silent and alone 3 ft up in scrub. CORRECTION: Area where [[underlined]] rufinucha [[/underlined]] heard Singing, and overlapping with [[underlined]] torquatus [[/underlined]], is [[double underlined]] not [[/double underlined]] the same place where [[underlined]] torquatus [[/underlined]] was heard and seen yesterday. [[margin]] CC? [[/margin]] 6:23. Hear first CC-like Twitter. NODWAH. There are a very great many Rfl's around here this morning. The [[underlined]] rugroirutatus [[/underlined]] must be in breeding condition. [[margin]] Laf CC? [[/margin]] Then some Laf Song NODWAH. Shuts up. Then some more Twitters. NODWAH. Shuts up. [[margin]] Cy CC? [[/margin]] Then hear what is almost certainly Cy Song in distance. NODWAH. Shuts up. Then more CC-like Twitters. NODWAH. Shuts up. Then both presumed Cy and presumed CC utter a few phrases. Almost completely alternating. Both there [[underlined]] are [[/underlined]] a [[underlined]] few [[/underlined]] partial overlaps. [[margin]] Laf Cy CC [[/margin]] It looks as if mutual Song inhibition among the Laf(s), Cy(s), and CC(s) here is [[underlined]] good [[/underlined]] but [[underlined]] not absolutely perfect [[/underlined]]. [[margin]] CC Cy Ater [[/margin]] 6:35. See single CC in approximate area where Cy Sang a few minutes ago. I.E. territories of the 2 species at least partly overlapping. CC silent. 2 - 10 ft up in scrub. Picking insects off leaves. Also feeding red and pale yellowish-greenish-whitish flowers. [[underlined]] Lauce [[/underlined]] species on which Aters and [[underlined]] rufinucha [[/underlined]] have been seen to feed elsewhere. CC definitely alone. [[margin]] CC [[/margin]] Then CC flies away. At approximately same time, single ^[[checkmark]] [[underlined]] Uroruyias [[/underlined]] appears in exact same bush which CC has just left. But it shows absolutely no sign of wanting to follow CC. Utters a few R's And then disappears. A second or so later 2 ^[[2 checkmarks]] [[underlined]] rufinuchas [[/underlined]] appear in scrub 20 ft
