C.Carola 1967 Journal 15 mi S. Cariblanco, Heredia Prov. Costa Rica August 2 Hunted toward the river (down hill). We saw many more birds than we could have shot because on the north side of the road is an incline that it was impossible to descend and on the south side is a hill that is impossible to scale. She #67 was in a branch 25 ft up over the road. The #71 was about one foot off the ground in some brush beside the road. She was another bird but I just couldn't find it. This bird and the nest were shot on the north side of the Rio Sarapiqui up the hill about a mile in the forest about 3yds off the road was #70. She stayed in dense leaves for about 5 min and then emerged just long enough for me to pull the trigger. No sooner did I have her than #72 perched over head. He was still for 2-3 minutes and hopped about from branch to branch. When I got far enough away to shoot him he hid for a while, etc etc. About 15 min later & got them. Saw 2 woodpeckers on tree 60 feet high. Didn't get to them in time. The entire hour or so I hunted this spot a vulture was playing in the sky. The #69 and the Xunopsi mounted #68
