Bea and I returned last evening from four weeks at Mandinga in ... 
the San Bias area* where we had excellent luck with the birds* Photo¬ 
graphy was not quite so exciting but I am sending you under separate 
cover th© exposed film to date on which I would appreciate your atten¬ 
tion. 
I believe that when you went to the San Bias your plan® landed 
on the Mr ndinga airstrip* which is where we lived and around which I 
did lay collecting.

Peninsula* to the south of where we were located at Parita in 19^8.
