- 14 - Guam- On Tinian, more than anywhere else, the White-eye and Kingfisher come into close juxtaposition, primarily because they have almost identical habitats (ie the long lines of acacias, running through the fields). Consequently there is more friction between the two species noted here than elsewhere . Still haven't seen a kingfisher get one of them. Guam A rare bird on Guam. Perhaps because relatively much less of the introduced (?) acacia and mimosa - in fact I didn't see any at all. Absolutely no Zosterops in the usual stands of pandanus jungle and banyan-like trees. The only place I found them was at the extreme north end of the island, where the richest variety of trees occured (always close to the ocean). Here was found a type of tree which appears to be a prerequisite to the occurance of Zosterops. It looks just like the Canyon Live Oak of California, and is about the only tree there that has small leaves, which is what Zosterops likes. In this limited area, they were fairly common in loose flocks of 4 to a dozen birds.. I Feel that the notes of the Guam Zosterops are distinct from those of Saipan. There were none of the high siskin-like calls heard on Saipan. I believe a much more tenuous and subtile difference exists in the call notes of the Tinian birds as compared to Saipan. end of series finished 3 Sept 45
