28 May Transfer #1 was returned to home nest; it requires a complete
control. The ♀ I am not certain is an egg. Each of the
other ♀'s of Transfers #2 + #3 gave me the impression they had
accepted their clutches. I saw #2 ♀ return and stay nest for at least 10 minutes.
29 May Ken Holcomb is with me today we are looking for nests & transfer
clutches. Found nest of [BL BL] in a willow ~1½' off ground
just N ~4 feet of large fallen dead tree. 3 eggs and one newly
just hatched incubated; ♀ was in attendance too.
