(17 June) The 2nd bird roosting ) was ? NY/DA who is #3635, one of the 2001 Cabin kids.
The bird definitely entered The hole quite
late in The game, but 1 bird subsequently
left and it could have been her. This
was before 83245 came.
23 Oct. Birds roosting in the old nest area are
apparently for a new group with 2 NOBA
#4 and 3 helper 80 from Plague. It shall
be known as "Upper Barn".

26 May 1530. Coming back from Chongo I noticed a bird
in a tree over above the Upper Barn and finally
went to investigate, finding a nice new hole
with babies looking out! Woodpecker emergency!
(Cdain)
I got Joey and we went back and, after
blocking the hole, opened it (tag#5807) and
captured the 3 kids. They were quite old, and
one refused to stay, flying out (pretty well!)
as we left, even after blocking the hole for a
few extra minutes. So it's even possible
that we missed one, but hopefully not. Close!
Plenty of stores left here.
27 May No! Looks like this nest is (was) Cabin's!
29 May 900. Bird in new low hole in 20 tree (facing garage):
I incubated eggs! (25.3 x 19.8), Tagged 5809, Boy
Is this weird - another 1-egg clutch?!??
