Duval, E.H. 2004 Journal Isla Boca Brava, Chiriquí Prov., Panamá 3 April 2004 We set three nets this morning and caught seven manakins near the FBE road. All were naive birds - either unbanded (greens and a red-cap) or birds banded in the nest (one DM from 2001 and a CB from 2002). I collected feathers from the head, breast, back, & rump of each for spectrophotometer analysis - I do wish that I'd brought the Ocean Optics machine to the field now. We did one watch each and intended to reopen the nets but Frank kidnapped Julie for a mid-afternoon fiesta, and work was delayed by an hour or so. We still managed to open nets in the afternoon and caught one female - RRR #023. During the morning we captured XYX, and she turned out to be a different individual (#629) than those listed in the MBL. We completed her band combinations.
