L. Cavallaro 1967 Journal 11 (Cont) August 2 1.5 mi S. Cariblanco, Heredia Prov. Costa Rica were shot just a few feet from the road. I am now using the "half birds" I had made in San Jose. The shot size is #6 or larger & blocks the birds all apart. But since I could get nothing else made, its better than nothing. Alternate rain & sun, Clouds & fog in the morning. On the way back I caught the little frog in a puddle on the catapilla road 1/2 one city block up from the Rio. We saw a tree full of small birds (1-3?) but the forest was too dense to get to them. Skinned all afternoon). August 3 For me a very bad day. Got only one little bird. In the morning. Put him up & went out again but got nothing but wet. Raining almost all day. We set up a mist net beside the road where we had seen alot of bird activity. Caught a land crab in the grass. She # 74 was one of 10 birds feeding on a tree with fruits about this size. Even tho I shot at the tree the birds rapidly returned to feed. We saw (now) the hedge where we couldn't shoot) two jays (beautiful blue) and a woodpecker & many smaller birds.
