SP Myers 1993 Journal 66 Estancia From Rio Grande to N. Maimonte, by road, Territorio Nacional de Tierra del Fuego, Argentina 31 October Maurice Rumboll and Joseph Tell who were to leave left toward their for us as their wheelabout. Met Adrian Goodall at the Estancia. 10 Km NW of Rio Grande by road (dettor between Rio Grande and Estancia Maria Blotti), Terr. Nue. de Tierra del Fuego, Argentina 1 November Late the evening of the 31, Rumboll led us to a camping spot at the edge of a small lake where Tell has been studying the Magellanic plover. Wind moderate and steady at 0745. Low 40's °F 30 WR (light breeze) by shore on mud flat (see spec. accent). I walked down to Tell's blind, and after a few lengthy search found Pluvicelles - 3 adults.

This could be a very interesting feature of the species habitat on Tierra del Fuego. Across the road from this pool lake and the car is another lake. There are peregrine as well. Also a shama and a black gall feeding or a dead reedland goose. At 0900 Tell & Rumboll came. We watched a pair of Play socialis feeding. This chick, then went back to Chapiro by the blind and caught their chick. One other chick (as banded) this morning (see spec. accent). Estancia has Flamencos. 84 Km NW from Rio Grande, Territorio Nue. de Tierra del Fuego, Argentina We went with Tell in two cars in order to check out some incubating Pluvicelles in two different salt lakes near the main road (house
