1985 Walter D. Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus Wolfpack 4 October Katy reports a new group in between Road1 and Pipeline consisting of [illegible] ≥3 birds, inc. 2 ub♀♀, 1 ub♂, + maybe a third ♀. They are apparently storing in the large Valley Oak across the road and spend a lot of time in the Sycamore (see map on back). 19 October Came at dusk to watch roosting; there appear to be 4 birds here. 15 October ≥1 bird roosted high in the Sycamore; 2 seem to have zipped off up the hill toward Warp 5. 26 October We hit the jackpot this morning, catching 6 unbanded birds here, 5 in the large dying sycamore by the road (1♂ + 4♀♀) and 1 in the tall sycamore by the former site of The 1980 RI nest (a♂). Two may have been 1st-yr birds, but their ages were not obvious. They are now #1174-1179. I think These birds may be "from" Warp 5, but I'm not sure. At least now we can find out!
