1991 Walter D Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus Westgate 1470 HNHR 7 January 1245. Counted stores: [illegible]. Tree is quite replete; I'd put capacity at about 1750. 4 March *Group Update* Amy reports that 991571 and 1688 continue to hang out here and at Gate. In the meantime, 91886 and 91742 last seen 8 Dec, gone by 9 Jan. → D.A. 24 Dec. ± 2 wks. 29 April 1030. Checked the old nest holes (inc. last year's, where they've been the last couple days): empty. Could be egg-tossing, of course. 1 May Morne reports a ♀ who could only be 91415 from Cazebo here (looking into holes, mounting, etc.) along with at least 1 of the ♂♂ that belongs here. What is going on? 3 May 620. Watchling. Should be close to laying here. 640. ♀ BIK/ya #1585. Light here stinks. also? 700. (♀) M/R-b ?? Possibly a ♀NOBA here? 707. ♂♂ 9M/R-B #1415. Birds are going, at least, to all 3 known good holes. [illegible] 715. ♂(?) LB/M ?? Legs probably mixed up. 736. 91415 (?) went into high hole and took out a bill full of wood chips. 740. 2 more trips. Also - I think there is a ♀NOBA here... Light is still bad here, however. 750. ♂ (♀) M #1582. There is also a 3rd ♀ here: 9DB/- ?? → 91473?? (not confirmed) 815. ♀ BIK/light- working on the new hole. 830. I can't be sure, since the light is only now improving and only 91415 is here dependably, but I think that 2-3 of the Cazebo ♀♀
