(2 May) 750. That's who it is: 8582. All in all, it looks pretty much
like it did on 13 April again: the 2 1st yr 88 along with
(now only 1) unbanded ♀. One has to wonder what's
up with old 8284! There's no sign of him at the moment!
800. Leaving. Still chasing, Carricks, etc., but only
2-3 intruders. Things pretty calm.
13 May 1935. Watched roosting here, but after checking the holes (at
1920) I didn't see or hear a thing!
26 May 1550. Watching. None in any holes.
1635. A bird flew up the hill and landed near me, then
flew off toward Keep Out. He/she did not look at ease.
The bands were ? BP-? / M ; possibly this is 8583
from here, but I doubt it. Leaving for now. This
place is quite dead.
' 3 June 900. No sign of life up here in passing.
13 June 1345. " ..." " ..." " ..." " ..." " ..." Over in the side
area (toward Fanny Arnold above Keep Out) was a banded
♀ (♀ wn/or ...?) but otherwise zilch.
1 July 830. Walked by here, seeing nothing except a bird up in a perch
tree above the main area who flew over toward Keep Out.
21 July 820. Nothing seen here in passing.
