Myrna Leary 1969 journal 78 [illegible]ridge [ 12 mi. ENE Olmos, 2000ft., Depto. Lambayeque, Peru Aug. 17 (cont.) snap traps placed along the rocky slopes. No more bats were caught last night. I caught a small lizard by hand (OLAC 295). It had an orange head and yellow elin' was running through the brush. 10:00 a.m. Caught a Furnarius in the mist net. It is a golden tan bird about the size of a robin and has a light yellow eye with black pupil. The beak is long and somewhat curved. I walked down the stream a ways and saw lots of lizards & doves. There are woodpeckers here. I saw 3 on a tree trunk. Each had a bright red crest, black eye stripe, + white cheeks + ventral. Under a rock I found a large toad + a small lizard together. 12:00 noon. Left our campsite and drove up the road to Porculla Pass. It is steep and brushy and overgrazed. Bromeliads are growing on the trees. We drove back 2 km. from the pass and set some traps along a fairly heavily vegetated slope with rocks. I set a few snap traps along a dry creek bed. We then drove up to the pass where we set up camp right at the pass. Dr. Robert set snap trees along a creek, Ray set along a brushy rocky ridge, and I set my 3d small shermans up the west-facing slope along brush and a few scattered rocks. Our 2 trapping localities are 2 km. W Porculla Pass, 6500 ft., Depto. Lambayeque,
