15 Jan Ambushed a new hole in the rotten limb this
morning, getting 1 bird: #3923, a 3Y bird from
Sch Hill Anney. Is she here with #3501? Seems
unlikely, I'll have to try to find where the
others are roosting here.
There are stored acorns here.
22 Jan Ambushed the old MLF1 hole and got The
NBOA♂ (now 84031) and The banded ♀, who
isn't #3501 after all, but instead #3842, an
old H-B kid! Probably not with #3923 anyway,
I would guess.
