C. melanocephalus

More of the same in the A.M. by
lines III A-B & IV A-B.
In the afternoon - fewer birds in
area of P's Plot. Walked into Holmes'
Mosass - then into Central Marsh; prob.
1 bird/acre in these areas. More
aerial activity than seen recently -
birds fly up about over marsh, quite
vocal.
22 August
Back along Voth road - birds
were thick in small groups, feeding
in drying ponds ('black-bottoms' are
quite conspicuous now) and around
pond edges. Good separation from red-
backs that are now feeding on
upland funara. Red-backs, or least
in the area covered, were quite a bit
more common.
