2006 2007 Walt D Koenig Mclamerpis famicarum 150D HNNR (30 May) a starling nest on top of it, which he cleared out. Today I cleared out another starling nest with 4 eggs. These guys are a real problem this year. [Hole 1327] 9 June still stores here. 22 June Maggie found the new nest here, with ~15 do kids, in a new hole. Banded & bled all 3, even though they're a 6-7 young yet. Hole tagged #4048, in the main tree (high). 2007 18 March 740. Did a (temporary) removal here to relive the Hannon (1985) experiments. We ambushed last night at the old hole (where a starling was roosting - now deceased) and last year's new hole. I was able to pull out the 2 helper ♀♀ (4125 & 4127) plus the NOBA ♂; This morning when we returned we got 84259 in the net. At that point we released the helper ♀♀ and kept the 2 ♂. Will we get a power struggle or any serious indication of a replacement? The 1st issue, of course, is: Who's the NOBA ♂? (now 4312). The 2 possibilities are: another of the missed kids from SOSp in 2005 who is now here to join his brother (4259), or, a kid from a (missed) fall nest here at 150D. He does have 2Y-type
