1984 R.L. Mumme Acorn Woodpecker School Hill 22 March Up here 1405, after Jim reported hearing a bird up here on 20 March. 1545, Slow, but for sure at least two (maybe 3) birds up here. One is undoubtedly Green-Black/Green-white ♂771 M / Green-white, banded at Low Itay in 1982, one of the 3 1800 Breeding ♂ last year. Also present is a bird that I didn't see sex of, but may be ♀787 Red-Yellow/M, also of 1800! Need a better watch up here to be sure of her, though. Both birds spent a bit of time poking around in the granary, and eating buds/tratkins from the blue oaks NW of the granary. 5 April See Philip's notes for details of comings & goings following the acorn addition. Up here at 0830, Two new Still residents confirmed: Both are old friends. ♂669 M /Or-DBlue (1981 Still nestling, then from Y) and ♂601 M /unt-Clare (1980 gate tnestling, then 1500) Great. They seem to be a good unit. Saw one of the birds eating a bit of acorns. Only 6 acorns left in the artificial granary, however. This also explains Walter's observation of ♂669 and a ♀ at Y yesterday. 11 April School Hill has changed again! 0830-0930 ♂669 waking + traveling around with a ♀NB. ♂601, who was intrudly at Fink on 9 April, was also here briefly, but obviously solo. She must have give up (or chased out). Also saw ♂769 M /Black-red formerly of Blom3, who I saw intrudly recently at OK Corral
