Wages Pluit 1973 Journal 145 275 km NW Villa Hayes rd, Dept Pte. Hayes, Paraguay. (See notes on last month's visit for a description of place & what there). Saw a large flock of 50-50 white-tipped pectoraries, & a red forest Mayama, w. horns. Returned 11 AM. Water level this is much lower than a month ago. The river, is a swamp again, hardly any current when before this was a torrent. On the swamp behind the cheers I'd guess the water is 6'-1' lower than it was. Large areas which were under water, are now exposed - hundreds of hectares. Because we could eyeball this relatively clear land we saw more of the cheera area. Bordered by thick, tangled brush with tree tops we can't see elsewhere. Not much grape bromeliad. Looks dry, but not xeric, like most of the world. Not so story, circle. Many vines. The pectoraries were weakly but in open brushland - scattered lumbi & cactus. Disappeared into the bromeliads & Prosopis forest.
