Melanerpes formicivorus
LA2
(20 June) LA2 granary earlier). j. LB-Yel/Blk -? #1715 from Big Tree (!). In Top Tree with LG/LB-LP?
1700. Red #1612? feeding a baby. Now j/m/Dull
harrassing DB/Yel-DB #1116! This is an old LA2 nestling
last seen Dec.'87!
1715. 2 babies now here. jda/m (1715 again?) What's
he doing here??
Maybe This
Bird (#1116)
is actually
at Big Tree??
1730. Leaving. What's up here? Who are the at LA2?
The return of 1116 would suggest the possibility of a
turnover? Also, I still haven't gotten good looks at
the LA2 babies except for #1750. Better try again!
25 June
1430. Watching. j red/DB-or #1716 from Big Tree (I'm watching
The Top Tree).
1445. Moving to watch LA2 tree. M/or #1749 being fed by M' 6ll?
Also a 2nd juv and or/DB-wN(?) 1234 (Big Tree).
1455. j CB
#1750 begging from 1234 (and mostly getting
beaten up).
1515. Finally a , alone in the granary. Wh/M #1611.
1530. 1234 still here, with others, in the LA2 tree.
1540. Wh/Red #1371; the Red seen well. In granary. 1611.
1545. leaving. are still here. 1234 would appear to
be here, while 1612 has probably left. My guess is that
1116 is actually over at Big Tree rather than here, but
this needs confirmation.
