Melanerpes formicivorus
Westgate
(22 March)
1720. Another intruder landed low in the tree but was chased
off by 3 birds within 2 sec.
1729. Another intruder chased off 6?4 bird pack.
1735. No vocalizations for over 1 min. now-a 1st for
the day, I'm sure. Things are clearly slowing down for
the evening.
1750. Leaving. There's no doubt that the S 89 are solid.
But what now? Surely all S aren't going to stay and
rest here! Should continue to be an interesting group
to watch here.
6 June 1630. Counted stoves: 275.
