1984 R.L. Mumme Melanerpes formicivorus Poison Oak Hill 3 March Up here with Beth, 1600-1700 hrs. We find no acorns and no birds at PO #1. The granary had lots of acorn shells in it, but it was hard to tell if they were fall 82 acorns or fall 83 acorns. I suspect the former. At any rate, no evidence of anybody around. At PO#2, pretty much the same situation: No acorns, and no real sign of any activity. We sat down + watched + stuff for awhile, though, and one AW (sex & bading status unknown) cruised through the periphery, heading abb in the general direction of PO #3+ #4. I suspect that that bird did not belong at #2, and that both PO#1 + PO#2 are abandoned, and have been since the fall.
