Mixed Diglossini; Mar. 15, 1966, VIII [[circled]] 44 [[/circled]]

NOTE: This morning glory is [[underlined]] very [[/underlined]] abundant around here. Vines covering everything like honeysuckle in the US
 
4:17. More [[underlined] leucopterus [[/underlined]] Song. NODWAH except Scan.

Then see pair [[underlined]] leucopterus [[/underlined]]. Ranging 2-6 ft up in "hedge." Apparently alone.

Going to work [[underlined]] above [[/underlined]] San Juan this morning. Area where I worked on previous years. Arrive 5:50 am. Just starting to get light. Sky partly cloudy.

First [[underlined]] rufinucha [[/underlined]] Whistle Songs 5:57 am. NODWAH 

[[underlined]] rufinucha [[/underlined]] Songs overlapping some "Rfls"s at random. (These Rfl's [[underlined]] may [[/underlined]] be by [[underlined]] nigrocrutatus [[/underlined]]. But I am somewhat dubious. They sound a little peculiar.)

Quite a lot of different individual [[underlined]] rufinuchas [[underlined]] Singing 6:05. 

[[underlined]] rufinuchas [[/underlined]] Singing somewhat less frequently 6:10.

NOTE: Aside from the [[underlined]] rufinuchas [[/underlined]], the Dawn Chorus has been very poor here this morning (so far). It apparently is [[underlined]] not [[/underlined]] the breeding season for most species here.

6:20. [[underlined]] rufinuchas [[/underlined]] Singing frequently again. Still NODWAH. 

Ca. 6:30. See a number of aerial fights among hummingbirds. But I can't identify the species.

[[margin]] Ater [[/margin]] 7:06. See single Ater (identification definite). Silent and 

Transcription Notes:
It's Diglossini, not Diglamini. It took me a bit of scouring earlier transcriptions to figure this out ass well. The way he writes the s looks like n or m; this is something that is constant in the paper. Also, the unknown word is "This". His T's are unique in the wait her curves the starting line. Just a tip from someone who spent way too long scouring over these papers! --Silverie PS for reviewers, the formatting was wonked up when I started fixing this, so there might be places I missed. Just a little heads up!
