1981 R.L. Mumme Melanerpes formicivorus UA2 (14 Oct) and I misread the band, I can't have any idea of who that was. The Green-Wht ♀ is also a mystery. She looks recently banded, but does not show up on the field list. Could be a bird netted in the Lambert (or Low Hay?) revolution this year, or a bird banded on PO Hill. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out who this new ♀ is. So, We must conclude that ♀621 has cashed her check Last seen on 13 Sept, probably disappeared late Sept, early Oct. J682 + 683, not seen after banding, must certainly be gone Bk-Or/Black bird that I saw could be ♂590. Would like to see him again. I'll say I saw him. Seems likely. Looks like storing has begun. These guys, of course, never even came close to running out of acorns, but I did see a few new greenies (Blue Oak?) in the granary, amidst all of 1980's stores. ** footnote; Checking the records, I find that the Red-wht/Red-wht new ♀ here is ♀632 M / " " , the ♀ that Walter banded at Lambert in fall of 1980. Thus, ♀632 did not die, but rather abandoned Lambert (because of no acorns?) in March or April, went somewhere, then showed up here in Sept or Oct. (This also proves, once again, that I can't distinguish many colors. Oh, the trials of the color-blind. I even had many close looks at the bird, and all the time I thought it was Lgm or (at worst) Or.
