5 p.m. Our packer, José, has just come in to inform
us that a mule is missing, so we will be two days
late in changing location. But - "mañana" is the rule
in this country!
The feature of my day was a full close view of a
Ferruginous Rough-leg (my gun was entirely out of
commission at the moment!). The bird circled
above me within 60 yards, showing its character
well. It was the whitest hawk I ever saw. The
whole under surface was white, save for sparse
dark markings on the chest; The ? 2/3 of the tail
was white, the ? third being light ?;
The under sides of the wings were white save
for dark primary types and for dark mottlings
in a transverse row at "wrist." Lamb and I
have both seen this bird distantly in previous
days, referring to it as "the white hawk." This is the only other ? besides the Red-Tails we have seen at this station.
Saw a Great Horned Owl fly along the hillside at late dusk last evening. We hear their notes every night.
