  Maintenance Energy Costs of Two Partially Folivorous Tropical Passerines
Grayish Saltators and Orinocan Saltator spend about 50 and 42% of daylight hours, respectively, sitting and a further 30 and 35% en- gaged in low-cost static activities such as preening and singing (Garcfa 1994, Rodriguez 1994).
The de- crease in T b between 34 and 13øC T a that we estimat- ed from the regression equations was 1.9øC in the Grayish Saltator (from 39.5 to 37.6øC) and 4.1øC in the Orinocan Saltator (from 39.1 to 35.0øC).
However, the fact that saltators spend 77 to 80% of their time sitting, singing, and preening suggests that, under such a relaxed time budget, it is unlikely that they would be forced to forage or to spend con- siderable portions of time exposed to unfavorable ra- diative environments.

 NOTES ON THE RANGES AND BREEDING HABITS OF CERTAIN MEXICAN BIRDS
The upper half of the o.tside of the cup was decorated with bits of green moss and a few pale grayish blue lichens.
Other- wise, we encourtered,the Grayish Saltator only on the.opposite side,of the river, in tangled shrubbery along the edges of the cultivated tracts.
It was about six feet from the ground in a tangle of vines and shrubbery; was partly sheltered by a slender dead tree which had half fallen over; and was, in general, like that of a Cardinal, but bulkier.
