A major fuckup this evening when I ambushed at
CVGrande's old nest hole (hoping to catch Rajneesh
birds) only to catch ♂1079 - on hatching eggs!!!
[One egg had hatched - at least 2 unhatched eggs
were there also]. Well. Piss me off. So I stuffed
him back in and plugged up the hole to keep him in
tonight (Stanback will unplug it before dawn). Wow.
See map on back. We hope he will be ok tomorrow.

*Group Update*
Birds here are ♂1079 (from CVGrande) and ♀1204
(caught at CVPower Struggle). Both were
certainly here by 19 April.
