the mud walls of the quebrada. One of these was a vertical fracture of the banks, closed at top and wide enough at the bottom to crawl back about 20 feet. It was cool, dark, and contained one [illegible] medium-sized bat, but the mud walls looked so insecure that I didn't dare crawl in. Tropes arrived by burrow about 5 p.m. So sent them out through the gray sandstone boulder near camp -- orgun pipe cooter, thorny mimosas, a small reddish Spanish bogoret. Jacklighting saw poorly, no mammals. July 10 Nothing in traps. Walked to Rio Cabera by way of the south fork of the road. Mostly through terrain similar to that at camp Toja (rather open than scrub). Shot 3 crimson- crowned finches and 1 Cratopogys sulcistris. Saw only a few of each of these, plus a few bingbirds, a few pocketets. Heard no quail (have heard none from this camp). Morning clear with scattered clouds. Temp at noon 31,° humid 40°. More birds in P.M. No jacklighting in evening. Instead, packed specimens etc. in preparation of going to Bogota tomorrow to locate my trunk. July 11 Left 4 a.m. for Villama, Meia + Bogota. In one hour of driving before dawn saw 6 [illegible] and 1 antester, the latter crossed the road in open country with a reeoon-like rushing gallop. When we got to Meia, found that my trunk had arrived, so after lunch and shopping returned to camp. Smith says that the flora around Meia is quite different from at any of our other camps.
