2005 Walter D Koentz Melanerpes formicivorus Middle School Hill (MSH) HUNR 19Apr? 1700. Walked by that tree with the nice hole in it somewhere up above the Y area only to find a bird in the hole! Not sure - this could, perhaps, be School House(?), but it's a ways away, so I'm calling it Middle School Hill (MSH). I'll need a rope to open it. See back for a tentative map. 21Apr? 1300. None in hole this time. Tree is tagged #1503. GPS: 629911 / 4027430 Much to my surprise, there is a single (one) Fresh egg in the hole! Measurements: 27.2 x 19.2. Hole tagged #908. Something is indeed up here, although I'm not sure what yet! 25Apr? 1800. Bird in hole. Checked it: 4 eggs (incl the one from 4/21). LED 4/24; hatching ~7 May. Measurements: ② 27.1 x 19.8 ③ 26.6 x 19.8 ④ 26.7 x 19.9. 1st egg (from 4/21): 27.2 x 19.2. 9 May 1430. 2 kits, 3-4 do, + nothing - just eggshells Band ~ 26 May.
