DuVal, E.H. 2000 Journal Isla Boca Brava, Chiriqui Prov., Panama 13 May 2000 Weather: 47mm of rain, starting at ~4:00. We did 3 observations each, & Kat saw a possible capulation at the new site "Triple Creek Junction." (male banded). Mark got band combes for M-11 (YRR, formerly listed as male due to her quite large red cap). It was a day of snakes: Mark saw a green "vine snake" that sounds like the one I saw last year - dark eye stripe, brighted lighter green head, darker green body. It was about 2m long & ~1" in diameter. I found a very large possible boa, that could be the same thing that Frank ID'd as a Boa de lance in our first few weeks here. I spotted him moving downhill from 2nd Beach (2), where he was being mobbed by ants & snakes. Note: We haven't seen a Swainson's tursh in weeks now.
