1993 1994 Walter D Koenig Melanerpes formicivorus MacFlat HNHR 1 February 1515. Checked the dead limbs here, finding 566 acorns stored! There would appear to be a group here, unless it's just the R3 birds storing here as well. 2 February Skip watched here this morning and reports R3 birds (mostly jaws) hanging out here. So it's probably not a new group yet, at least. 8 April At least a few acorns still stored in this area. 1994 21 January 1045. Hard to know what's up, since Jen & Wendy have failed to see anyone in this area (or at R3), but there are a goodly number of acorns stored: Plains area: 525 ? 1085. Not bad. Burned LO: 560 I also heard birds up on the side of PO Hill beyond the burned LO. 1 March The old, low nest hole just above the road has been lost within the past month.
