1977 Walter D. Koenig 4 Melanerpes formicivorus Finch Hastings Reservation. 6 April 855. Lots of calling all over here, even more so than at Road I right now. ♂♀/DB-wn #232 seen from the road. 907. ♂ Tan-Red/Tan-Red #282 and ♂♂ DB #278 in perch tree. 910. A Girl: M/LP (?) Wha? Don't know who this was. 912. ♂♂ Arm-Blk/Arm-Blk #63 in sycamore storage tree. 915. ♀ LA-Blk/LA- ? #280 922 ♂♂ Red-Yel/Blk-LA #67 hawking here. Though there is still a fair amount of activity, I haven't seen a chase yet; perhaps the excess calling was merely been generated as a byproduct of the activity at Road I over the last day. 926. ♂♂ ? Pink/wn probably #66. 930. Leaving to count stores. Counted stores: Main tree: 1059 ) Sycamore: 228 / 1287 Still some activity (1030), but relatively quiet. 18 April 1230. Lots of activity here centered at the moment around the sycamore storage tree. 1300. Here's the scoop, best I can tell: this is a revolution similar to that at Road I a couple weeks ago--that is, no one is gone, so these are birds apparently just plain trying to bully their way into the group. All 8 known group members were seen well (#63,232, 66,67,549,278,280,282); #280 was over by herself in the Valley Oak granary most of the time, but all others were along the creek from the sycamore up a few trees battling it out with the intruders.
