El Juiol, 230 m., 19.5 km. NWE Encarnacion by road.
Apts. Itapua, Paraguay.
18 September around listening for other species. At 07:45
I left the hotel and took the path to the
airstrip. I walked down the airstrip until
I reached one of the other paths leading
to the hotel, and then walked parallel to
the hotel until I reached Middle Trail.
I took Middle Trail until I reached the
Super Fern Trail, which I took up to
the Cross Creek Trail. I had never been on
Super Fern Trail before, and recorded a
Campephilus robustus and unidentified
dendrocolaptid there. In general, there
seemed to be a relatively large amount
of vocalizing going on around that trail,
even though the wind was sometimes very
strong and whipped the treetops about.
I took the Bamboo Trail back to the
hotel, returning at 11:45.
At 15:45 I took the path to the airstrip
and spent until 17:30 in the area in
which they were trucking out gravel.
The wind was still very strong, and
the main vocalizers were the Great
Kiskadees (Pitangus sulphuratus), House
Wrens (Troglodytes aedon) and Chestnut-
Rufous Collared Sparrows.
