Lepidopyga
Oct. 24 5km. N. Villarrica, 400 ft., Huila, Colombia, S.A.
Upon returning to camp from a collecting
foray, found a nest and a dead ? which
Perico and Paulino had brought in
(bird #1446, nest #1447). They had shot
the bird with a slingshot as it sat
on the nest. 2 eggs which the nest
contained (their observation) had been
broken by the stone which killed
the female (?). I was unable to sex
the bird with certainty.
