1990 Walter D Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus School Hill HNHR (17 July) 730. ♀1690 (from Pipeline) Measured after having been caught in the nets. Power struggle activity still going on. 815. Have caught j1856 from Hay-Blom, ♂1388, and another jNOBA (now j1900) in the nets. Still going! 845. Watching. About 12+ birds here, including several begging jugs. ① ♂ Red/DB-or #1620. ② j1899 in the granamy begging, but not clear that anyone was paying attention. ③ j190D up here also. ④ ♂1388. ⑤ ♀NOBA. ⑥ ♂or/or#1385. 900. j1899 & 1900 are the only 2 in evidence - with luck we caught all the jNOBAs. Otherwise it would seem to be a ♀ power struggle - did 9260 finally kick the bucket? 21 October Apparently so; she's been replaced by a ♀NOBA.
