1991 1992 WalttrD Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus Blomthnes HNHR (6 June) 1147. Wait! Here he is! 1155. They're feeding acorn bits here(!) 1200. He finally fed. But I'll have to wait at this point. 7 June 825. Back again. 845. Got her! 9 June 855. Set for the recapture. 910. Got her! Banded & bled the 3 babies also. 15 July 1510. Group out of stored acorns here. 1992 Group abandoned by fall 1991! 4 May 1700. Bird in hole. 2nd bird nearby! 5 May 830. Checked the hole (traditional hole in nest tree): empty but in fairly good shape. 910. 8 DB-BLK/EB or DB/LB (perhaps 81883 from SH4: [illegible])? 940. Things slow here. I'm off. 11 May 1245. 8 DK/DK-LB #1929 on top of main nest tree. Checked hole: remains in good shape but empty. 14 May 1045. None in holes here (hole not checked). 13 June 1035. 8 LB/M ?? on top of nest tree; 2nd bird here also. None in any holes, however. Who is this bird? Definitely not one of the 88 who's supposed to be here.
