1977 Walter D. Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus 1800 (20 May) 1418. A pair of Ash-throated Flycatchers are interested in the nest hole (the one that was just being used); one of them is going inside and checking it out. 2 June 1310. Watching. Something going on here--there's too much activity for a group of 2. 1315. In fact, there are ≥6 birds here.♀ub seen, in nest tree. She drummed once, and is probing into storage holes. 1320. Not only is there a fair amount of activity here, but there is a bird looking out of the '74 nest hole over on the side of School Hill! 1325. There are now 3 birds together on top of the old granary on the knoll toward the gate, while at least 1♂ is still in the main tree here. 1328. Sort of as I suspected, the 1350 birds (as it were) have some part in this: ♂DDBRU#348 was here in the nest tree briefly. 1332. ♂M/LP #296 here, and ♂ca-da/ca-y #298, as well as ♂or/qua-da#297 (all 3 together in the nest tree here). There is not any chasing going on that I've seen so far, only a fair amount of wales and 1 or 2 Garricks. 1340. There is somewhat more Garricking, etc., over in the forest next to the main tree. 1343. A ♂OrLW[334?] in Main Tree. That looks interesting. (Only other possibility I see offhand is a missexed #349) 1405. ♀OW/DB #260 here in Main tree, with several others, still no chases; another ♀ next to her (ub?) grabbed some food out of her gill! Also it is ♂OrLW cat/M #334 here for sure. Birds are acting very much like this is the latter
