Melanerpes fornicivorus
Lambert
Hastings Reservation
12 November
1210. Watching.
1240. Zitch. Going to walk around.
23 November
1130. Watching from hide.
1145. A [illegible] sitting in the middle tree down from the corner appears, as best I can tell, to be unbanded.
1230. No further sign of activity up here. Leaving.
1310. Hearing some calls up above Keep Out, I walked up and found [illegible] and [illegible] or #284; the latter for sure and the former probably the same birds here previously. I think I can safely assume that they are the group here. (see map on back)
28 December
1400. The storage areas on the HNHR side are pretty well full.
29 December
1200. Counted stores: [illegible] LamFT: 356
Nest tree: 204
VO Hast: 294

Also took a sample of 75 acorns, replacing them with my own.
No obvious sign of any birds while I was up here.
