NOTES: Neotropical Institute Cut # 11. Bulk reel: 256 Weather: Fair. Natural song by rubrifrons-type, apparently a female. Quality: 1. Level: +5. A little before Cut 11 was recorded, I saw a cruentatus-type bird, sex not determined, taking a sunbath, stretched out flat from tip of bill to tip of tail along a limb only slightly larger in and than the bird itself, on an angle ~ 10¡ above the horizontal; the bird's wings hung down on either side, straddling the limb. Prominently heard is Daptrius americanus, a pair of which apparently had a nest near this spot. Note: At Cano La Urbana, 12/III/68, I saw (together with Dean Amadon and Stuart Keith) one male cruentatus-type with two female rubrifrons-type. The birds were obviously in close association and the male and at least one of the females went into the same nest hole, separately and simultaneously.
