Marshall (1942)
Zonotrichia capensis
Volcan de Santa Ana Only Summit -
heard throughout this prairie land
even down in the flat parts
of the crater dotted with low
shrubs as shown in the MH
panorama. Songs heard from
all parts of this summit
area where flat brushy areas.
Very abundant here.
Aimophila rufescens
Volcan de Santa Ana Common on
dry brush cover grown on S slope
Cerro del Aguilas subsequent to removing
original forest. A place occupied by
lower zone "non-native" birds like
Lapara, Thamnohulus, etc. therefore
rather peculiar for Aimophila. Often
hopping right in road - same spot
every day - a pair here.
Chilata Rather common in dry
brush or hillside; forages on
ground - likes bare ground of road
or trail as at W slope Los Escaniles,
or Cerro del Aguilas. Grassland
only at San Ignacio. Same bushes
as A. ruficanda at Chilata.
