1992 WalborD Poemg Melanerpes formicivorus Hay-Blom HNHR (3 June) 1015. Watched the birds (actually, I never saw more than 2) flycatching, mostly from the Hastings nest tree. They occasionally flew elsewhere, but I generally followed them and never got any hint of nesting activity. 7 June 115D. Still plenty of stores left here. Why no nest? Or, perhaps more likely, why can't we find the nest? !July 1345. Hung out here for a bit and checked holes, but found no sign of anything going on. 30 August 1120. Checked around here; The birds are around, but nobody in any holes. Amazingly enough, they appear to have run through their stores here: lots of shells remain, but virtually no potentially intact acorns!
