Journal Isla Boca Brava, Chiriqui Prov., Panama 19 June 2000 No rain! For once! I'm writing at 8:30 pm, so there's still a chance for it to pour tonight. Mark stahed his new nest today and found out that the female is unbanded. After an uneventful watch at bridge, I joined him to set up a single 6m net near the nest. We caught the probable mother of M-21 and banded her PYY. Mark took two vials of blood from each chick and collected a fecal sample. Kat had a fabulous first two watches, with observation of dancing for a juvenile greenio. Probable? In the afternoon I did a watch at 2nd B (2) and saw AWA SF-1 for an unbG juv - and video taped it! hurray! The broken tripod has made videoing much more challenging. Frank a Yadhiorra left for Costa Rica today, for the quarterly "vacation" (immigrat, reasons). Mark and I watched a scaly-breasted hummingbird sing beautifully. For a long time near bridge; there were several singing quite loudly in the area.
