Feb 9 2 1/2 mi. ESE Del Valle elm while mate worked upslope into similar growth. Latter kept wet wet wet scold going and there were occasion al answers from the other bird. I left the one upslope and started to walk over to other, believing it wounded. Other bird started to move toward the one fired at first and then changed course to W. I followed and fired at it in scrubby elm. I followed scolding bird upslope 25 yards; it perched in small elm and pecked at dehurrage and scolded. I took this bird there (701 ♥) Working downslope about 11:00, I followed starbird as it moved downstream a few yards, always wary and scolding. I fired at it in tall cottonwood and bird flew N across stream. Fortunately I could cross and did. Then I searched upstream and down; I heard a tacet and a thrush flew to next tree and perched there silent. I took it (702, 9). Bird's behavior appeared to have changed following shot made on S bank. Several tail feathers missing. I worked downstream on S bank but heard no thrice until I reached point of crossover at 9:45. Then I heard song peee peer peer peer peer from downstream. I was not certain which bank so I crossed (at bend) and walked down W side -- bird on E so I crossed back at 11:30 and worked down and into small elms and oaks. Hearing no further calls, I stopped and made repeated hooting noises. A variety of small birds responded but the thrice gave not one note. I continued downstream
