25 May The beginning of a new "era" as Stanback found the
nest here. Unfortunately, as I climbed up apparently
1 of the babies flew out - but there were still 6 others
in the hole!! (Mark has seen ≥ 5 girls here - none banded
so far). Hence, they probably had 7 babies here (it's possible
the escapee was an adult, but the vote is that it
was a baby.) We banded them as #1048-1053.
