June 17 We stopped at the plank bench x1010h
(continued) but still too cloudy and hazy for good
photos. I could actually hear birds
singing and some sort of squawking
duettle as well as single calls from
a distance that reminded me of
toucans. We saw no herps, back
to Station x1230h. Nikolai gave
me two female Trimeresurus morticola
that hunters brought in the # layer
in late May, the smaller in June, as
well as a beautiful young Pseudorodon
varvunicola he found last night in a
streambed. As he predicted, when Dave
Hardy and I photographed the latter
this afternoon, it repeated and also
briefly flashed a hood which
bears a crude large ocellus-like
marking. x1900 starts to rain.
Dave Wake, Majorie, and Kelly went to the
next pond & returned up in the hour
because of the storm, catching a big
Ichthyophis bannanicus on the same
staircase from the pond area into town.
Tool was on the staircase to the tower when
the storm hit and said the steps
turned into forests and he gave up on
