2001 Walter Droning 2002 Melanerpes formicivorus Stromberg HNHR (5 May) winning, at least at the moment. 30 May 1100. Finally got the nerve to open the new hole in The other sycamore (hole #1325): 6 inc. eggs. Measured one: 25.0 x 19.0. EHD: who knows, but probably soon (say 6/3). 6 June 1200. Checked The nest: 5 babies, ~3-4 to. Band ~ 23 June. 19 June 2015. The rooster tonight was [illegible] #2913 21 June 1600. Banded the 5 kids, one of whom (the runt) I took home. 2002 11 April 1430. Bird in upper hole: empty (has gone down to connect with hole below it). Meanwhile, the low hole (#1148) was full of water and the back had fallen out. I fixed it as best I could. This is all in The nice sycamore. 24 April 1430. Checked all the holes (mostly by peeping, so it's not absolute), since birds have been in them, but they all seem to be empty. The middle hole (the only one not opened) is perhaps the most likely candidate, I think, for the next. 30 April 1515. Bird in (unopened) middle hole. Time to got back up and check it. 1 May 1500. Bird in both the 2 lower holes. The lowest (tagged 1148) is filled with water (again). The middle hole, which I opened, is empty but in good shape. 7 May 1030. Middle hole (tagged #5338): 4 eggs.
