27 March Glancing here while checking Finch: A nice
DBlue-nutrn/whr surprise: ♀269 M / is back! She
looks fine, except for what seems to be a slightly
injured left eye. Also saw ♂486
and a ♀ that I suppose is ♂383, Missing abad
Yellow/NB
[illegible] Yellow-DBrn/M. Need more data to co-fir-
that, though.
13 April A quick glance here, I see ♂486, ♀269, ♂383
in the sycamore granary. All present r accounted for.
20 April Routine granary census. ♂486, ♀269, ♂383 all seen well.
No evidence of nesting activity, and the birds seem
to have a few acorn scraps remaining. ♀269's left
eye seems to be improving somewhat. M/whr-lbr.
4 May Granary census, but not routine: ♂578 Yellow/whr-lbr
appears out of nowhere, looks cozy with the others here
