tanagers, warblers & Ceophloens?
Setophaga pieta, rb thrushes, etc.
Worked down the pine ridge
(running n-e) which is very
dry & grass growing under the
pines. Further down, there is
dense brush of composites under
the pines & out on a steep, hot,
east-facing knoll - much grass &
brushes also - here over was
a group of Spinus psaltria. Warblers
in pines same as in oaks but
some different sp.: One singing, & a
hermit w. coll.

here flat wide for about 1/2 mi
& huge oaks thinned out preparatory
to planting coffee - but less brush
now. Several dead snags. Makes an
entirely different habitat - great trees
