Journal 28 26 March 1973, Wed. Hato El Porvenir, Fdo. Apure, Venezuela for any owllet; probably jaguar. / By radio, Madolefi advised return to Caracas to arrange craft trips. We took down "por puesto" to Barinitas, the other car to Guarico, due to Valencia, another to Maracay, where arrived after 7pm. We stayed near town. / On route, all country developed into grazing or cultivated square clearings with mostly deciduous trees between. Corn seemed suitable for owlets; but prey sufficient? Most land rather dry now, but covered a few running rivers, and Brugada area much flooded in winter, so not stand readily pastured by flood said "Palo Alto" next day. Called Madolefi's home, out. 29 March 1973. There, again tried to call Madolefi. Finally reached him at home. Coming to Rancho Grande tomorrow. We stopped then went by bus to Rancho Grande station.
