El Juel, 230 m., 19.5 km. NNE Encarnacion by road,
Dpto. ItapĂșa, Paraguay.
21 September
Time I've seen that species away from manakin
lek #IV. I stayed at the airstrip until 08:30.
From the airstrip I walked down the road
to pasture #1. I walked from the pasture
to Becker's forest, criss-crossing the forest
in search of Basilentemus culiciformis and
Empidonax euleri. I then walked through
the castor tree area and pasture #2 to
the "cut over grazed forest" area., I looked
for the two species here and also
recorded other birds. I walked back
through the pasture (#2) hoping to
record a species of Zonotrichia capensis, but the
wind was getting quite strong and was
destroying most of the recordings. I
then walked back via the castor tree area,
road and airstrip returning at 13:15.
At 15:30 I walked the drainage ditch
to the reservoir. There was a small
(approximately 10 x 5 ft.) puddle of water, though
but none of the herons I had hoped for.
I then walked the paths to the gravel
pit, but the gravel pit was very quiet.
Next I walked Middle and Loop Trails,
and returned to the hotel via Middle
Trail at 17:45.
