with, J 1990 journal 192 Beech Creek Reserve, 5 mi N Lucerne, Monterey Co., Calif., 400ft. 2 July All transplants empty! Everything quiet. 3 July 0500 hours Looking for fledglings at Transfer #6. Saw one banded adult heard it chirping with mate. No sign of fledglings. Very quiet. ♂ could give only partial song w/o that much energy. Stayed at Feynner's last night. He was supposed to arrive late from Santa Cruz but never showed. He is a Heineken drinker, Rum, Tequila and Red wine. Picked up liquid N2 tank 2 days ago 10L. The only enclosure that appeared tampered with was where %/F6 used to be. At this nest the exclosure was picked up at net cup tilted at 90° down toward side when exclosure had been tipped. At all others the exclosures were firmly in place. I believe I need to put on tops, to keep out jays. Talked with Mark Reynolds on the phone last night. He said he had banded both transplants! But, unfortunately had broken one nestling's leg so now has only 2 red bands no metal. Found nest of pair in middle of favorite bowl left right both 1 2 3 BL 3.53 3.56 3.40 BD 3.39 3.00 3.18 Blw 3.52 2.77 2.99 WL 15.27 14.61 13.53 Tc 0 0 0 Tar 13.26 11.26 11.62 midbr 14.76 15.45 14.03 hally 8.86 8.04 8.59 fat some some some age n4 n4 =3 cot 8.50 10.00 8.04 mouth drungeys open 8rd!° 0/5.61 0 3d 4.54 0 4.21 Rand 4.84 3.58 5.95 put exclosure around nest and draped hardware cloth over the top, 2 hours later 1730 ♂ + ♀ were in the area with bills full of food.
