R.B. Hamilton 1967 Journal Barrancos, 11 km N, 28 km E of Cabo Blanco, Dept. Piura, Peru Monte Grande, 14 km N, 25 km E of Talara, Dept. Piura, Peru August 6 see eye shine. I called Carl, and he shot this bird which was a screech owl. We also saw geckoes and an rodent arboreal rhodent in the trees which we located by eye shine. We caught several geckoes. Earlier in the day Ray shot a Furarius sp. and a green woodpecker. We then retired for the day. August 7 After breakfast I put up a parakeet that I shot yester- day while Fred went hunting. Fred returned with a warbler, wren, three woodpeckers, X a large flycatcher, a vermilion flycatcher, and a Furarius sp. When Fred returned, I went hunting and flushed a Pygmy Owl (Glaucidium brasilianum) from X thick mesquite near the rocky draw. I also shot several teid lizards. I located in a large hole high in mesquite tree (probably made by large woodpecker) an owl which appeared to be a long-eared owl. I had seen this owl yesterday and had hoped to shoot it when it flew from hole. However, I had to prepare supper. Fred was hunting, so I showed him where the owl was but he did not get the owl. Carl and I decided to rig the net in front of hole and hoped to catch owl as it flew out. The hole was about 20 ft. high, and we were fortunate that there were suitable branches nearby on which to rig net. When it got dark, we went night hunting. Again, owls were heard. We heard a Peruvian Thick-knee (Burhinus superciliaris) which fluttered to the ground in midst of mesquite thicket, seemingly confused by our light. Ray and I were nearby
