(7 April) 1620. 9990, ub & 6oth here now.
1630. Taking nets down. Couldn't get them really interested in it this
time.
21 April **Group Update**
See Blomone notes for comments re this group. I
don't think anything serious was happening here this
winter, although Philip saw birds hanging out here in
late January. I'm provisionally starting the group
off then on 15 March, when 8966 & 8967 from
Blomone moved here with 960 and 2 ub 99 (I
now 9990) from CV#2.
Now, all except 9990 then appear to have
turned right around and split for CV#1 on 10 April.
Actually, all went, but 9990 then returned
(at least temporarily) and is now here with 8963
from Dark Hollow. So we will simplify things by
leaving her at Blantyre for now. The other 4 go to
CV#1 on 10 April, and 8963 comes here that day.
with 9990 on 15 April.
