1977 Walter D. Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus Black Oak Hastings Reservation (12 July) 750.53m, #321 with the others (inc. juv, who's being fed by 846). 756.6 846 in old granary hawking and feeding the baby some of the insects she's catching. 830. A ♀ has been hawking by herself in the forest perch area for the last ½ hour who I think may have been 8367. 850. The ♀ hawking up there now, who is presumably the same bird, is definitely unbanded. 900. Leaving. I'm afraid the question as to what goes with the adult ♀♀ here remains unresolved. 8367 certainly was not in open evidence here today, however, while at least 1, and possibly 2 unbanded ♀♀ were. I'm either going to have to watch a bunch more or catch a few of these birds (which wouldn't be a bad idea). ✓ Counted stores: Central area: 625 13 July I was here at desk, noting rather solemnly that nobody seems to be roosting in any of the holes that I'm aware of- 16 July 8102 and j410 seen by P.L. Williams at the Arnold spring this morning. P.L. Williams is cute. 18 July 8102 and j410 seen by 8am at the spring. j410 drank 22 July Both the above birds seen at the spring again, along with an unbanded ♀. j410 even drank again. 23 July •j410 drank at the spring at 635 today. 30 July j410 seen at the spring again, also 8102 seen there. j410 at the spring again at 1545. 1 August 840. Several (4) birds inc. ♀ Reb-LG/M #320 in the old storage tree at the very far end of the field here (just over the fence line overlooking Ponson Oak Hill).
