1978 Walter D. Koenig Melanerpes fornicivorus Keep Out Hastings Reservation (28 May) 940. Pub sapsucking. Nest may no longer be being attended. 955. O.K.-bird in hole. Leaving for now. 29 May 1020. Checked hole-still 4 eggs. 30 May 1900. Bird in hole. 1 June 830-1100. watched the nest here, with little success, except that they're still incubating, an ub ♀, and ≥1 ♂ is involved. The 3(♂) were not identified, but things were definitely quite slow. I'll have to try again later. 3 June At this point I'm still going to hold back on adding ♂114, but I will add the unbanded ♀, who is certain (though there is still the possibility that later evidence will indicate her to be the same one from Lambert): ♀ub. Not seen here 13 March, here by 21 April (by this time ♂114 here also) → Moved here [Age unknown] I April 1978. My evidence is hardly airtight but I do suspect that there was somewhat of a gap (1-2 months) between the demise of ♀109 and the appearance of this ♀ here. 5 June 900. None in the nest, and no sounds from it either. Though I can't get up to it at the moment, my guess is that it's failed. In fact, looking at the records, today is the 11th since I first checked the nest and found the full set; thus, they almost surely would have hatched by now, and have already met their demise. 940. Watching. 1010. Leaving. 1 bird here briefly in the nest tree, but no activity around the nest itself.
