1991 Walter D Koenig 1992 Melanerpes fomticivorus OK Corral HNHR 27 January *Group Update* 81394. Returned! First seen 2 Nov '90, last time not here on 18 Oct. '90 → Returned ~25 Oct ± 1 wk. 4 March In the meantime, it would finally seem appropriate to knock off 8886, 91160, and 81391, all of whom were last seen on 21 Feb 1990. Very possibly 8886 wasn't even around for the breeding season, but this is up in the air (they were already missing a breeding ♀). I'll more or less arbitrarily have them all disappearing on 31 March 1990. 31 May. 1420. Group appears to be out of acorns. None in any holes. None even seen, in fact: 4 June 1015. Flushed a bird from here. Watching for a spell. 1100. Not much going on. Certainly nothing dramatic or dubious. 24 June *Group Update* 91640. Last seen 13 Feb by Amy, gone by 10 June → DA 1 Apr ±2 mo. 1992 19 January 91639. last seen 10 June, gone by 25 Oct → DA. 17 Aug ±2 mo. 81394. " " 15 June, " " →DA. 10 April 1530. Set out 2 feeders here in the granary; this is a supplemented group. 23 June 1300. Opened the nest here: 4 babies, 54.8 (29), 55.1 (30), 52.2 (27), 42.0 (23); This makes them about 13 do. 29 June 930. Set up for nest ambush. 1050. Got the ♀! 1110. Trying a bit longer for ♂ NOBA. ♂ - was in #1394 seen earlier. 1140. Quitting for now. Will try again tomorrow.
