One in the mango tree never laid more than the one - may have been an old egg. - Either the nest seemed new. The other one further from the road I collected with set of eleven. This nest had one egg July 1. This evening I discoverd we had been overlooking a small flycatcher the size of a becard but an exact miniature of the Derby Flycatcher. The note is like a Becard in some ways and yet resembles the Large Flycatcher. I have suspected once or twice such a small Derby but they were so exactly like the Derby I figured misjudged the size and difference. Again today I got a large air (Anchoo) in good condition - another female - laying. Three birds are pretty easy to see yet are quiet.
