1997 1999 Walter D Koening Melanerpes formicivorus Wolfpack HNHR 30 December 700. Well, they weren't roosting in the hole we gave them. Instead, they were down by the creek in the small sycamore in the forest toward Pipeline. I set an ambush last night; unfortunately, [illegible] the string broke, but I came back, got the pole, and succeeded in blocking the hole after missing only one bird. Interestingly, there were 3 others still in the hole - 288 and 14, all NOBAs! They are now #2963-2965. So note: 4 birds here - probably 388 and 14 but now at least we can find out for sure. 1999 19 April There are a few stores in the big VO above the road. 27 May Still stores left. Birds seem to be hanging out in the big VO. 6 July Stores: No.
