Journal 5 February 1972 SE of Escarcega, Campeche, Mexico. Open shelter, where men had camped much, opposite an "aguate." Shell deposits near. 2 shot shells. We went in for 20 minutes and camped. Frost, fairly common here, sometimes to 50°. Many antelopi as before. Many between road in eve. I walked road with light for 2 hrs. Heard a cow no such as coyote/gizte. But saw two mink/guys back in trees - lead crowing first: Brown hen, white belly, perched in tree by last aguate in night. Few mosquitoes. About 10pm, two cars went by on road in. (Later we heard that a couple of American families were hunting & camping in that way.) 6 February 1972. Pests seen morning, antelopi heard. Saw one hummingbird only. Back by aguate, saw small plum again - black breast, white throat, rufous belly near flys. Naked back - Tree Aguate reached at 12:15. We saw no cat track on road - same dog, but openrun, perhaps racoon, aguarul - no persing, deer tracks. Walked on W. or N.W. Reached gp. hut by an aguate at 13:15 - Copecangita. Again men said tejilla and tegies time, & that they had killed some - I asked to see skin; they said they had been sold. Tegies skin brought 2,500-3,000 pesos, they said. We were on different road than one out. In one front patch I saw flock of 10+ of the blue and black joip, 70' frost. Brown joip common, noisy. Reached highway at "20" (Calient len 2 1/2) at 4:25 p.m. Met party of 10+ hunters, 2 trucks, from Puebla - they were stopped by the mud. But fact illustrate heavy spent hunting very of once. Took bus back to Escarcega. Met another pair of hunter, from Mex city, at Hotel Losul. Bird unavailable again.
