to trees & flowers, and has roadways & staircase leading to the rocky summit. From the top a fine view of the city, the great flor valley & the peaks of the Andes may be obtained. The surrounding farming country is largely meadows with stock & gain fields. One of the premier Andean fruits is a large rounded stone sort of the cit, covered with man fields in places. No forest is visible, the sides of the mountains appearing quite bare. In the encyclopetes, cypress & pine trees of the Cerro I saw very few birds. The crested Sparrow of the Cuzco region was here a common bird in hedges. He looks slightly darker than the Peruvian but otherwise similar. A few olive gold finches unseen, & a white crested small flycatcher. The birds were nesting in full song.
