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21 October Apparently so; she's been replaced by a ♀NOBA.
