Nothing but the weeds trope in the meadow or in the forest across the road. On the way home, at the garage, a tiny freeware was staggering across the road. Caught it and revived it with honey-water etc. It was thin and bony, We have heard parrots every day, but have seen them only a couple of times. Today saw a flock of about 24, never saw doves here.

Day with scattered sun and clouds. The leaves have turned yellow since we have been here at Puerto Blest, left 5 pm.
