1976 Walter D. Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus Warp 5 Hastings Reservation (4 November) 1240. ♀ is up, and is presently sitting below me preening. No doubt these 2 birds, the ♂ and ♀, constitute the group. Since activity at the granary is minimal, however, I'll have to find the roost hole if I want to catch them. 9 December 2 birds seen here at dusk, both in the large Valley Oak down by the road.
