1978 Ronald L. Mumme Melanerpes formicivorus Lower Haystack Hastings Reservation 14 Oct Start watch from blind 0800 ?? male ? orange Right Wing streamer (#307?) seen at granary. Plus other ? bird. 0815 Phainopepla in granary. 0855 Nuttall's Woodpecker drumming on 2° granary. "Red-breasted" Sapsucker at 0905. 1000 Things are incredibly dull. Only wingstreamed ? prevalent, other bird disappeared. Never did get bands, but I briefly ?? red left leg as orange/black or yellow/Dark green, something of that nature. Doesn't fit anything on the field list. Orange streamered ? doing a lot of flycatching, but nobody else around granaries. 1025 Finally see M/O Pink-Orange of ?, confirms #307. 1040 That "other" ? reappeared, again showed me a left leg band combo, then flew north across fence to Blonquist property. Perhaps that's where others are? 1130 Finally I confirm ? 390 Yellow-Black/M, Yellow-Black/Red-Black flycatching NW of granary. Still no other birds seen. End watch 1145.
