1984 1985 Walter D. Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus UA2 HNHR 9 September 745. Here we are, waiting for some birds. 845. I hear birds way off somewhere, but none is coming in here; leaving. There are no obvious stores here yet. 1985 12 February 1200. I still don't see birds, but there are lots of stores: "Main tree": 1066 } Snag: 1885 } Doing well! 7 April 1015. Watching from blind. 1036. The tape definitely brings them in. Seen have been ①♂ DB/LB-Dr #123, ②♀ Or-wN/Or-wN #632, ③♂ Yl/M #681, and ♀ Y-LB/LG #916. 1050. As intruders in the lower nest tree are 2 ub 499 and ♀ M / DB ♀ DB-WR(M)/DB ? 1115. Still an occasional intruder and lots of activity here. But I'm still only seeing the same 4 birds, except for intruders. They could very well be it. 130. Still lots of action although I haven't turned the tape on in > ½ hr, but still no sign of anyone besides the 4. Leaving. 1615. None seen in any holes. 23 April **Group Update** 9779, 9914, 8915. All 3 seen in mid-March 1984, no more censuses all year! but we will guess that they left that spring (DA→ May 1984) but in fact it could have been anytime between April 1984 and April 1985.
