BLM 1
KUHR
(19 June)
fighting taking place here about 0730
when these 5 birds were present. Only
one bird was being attacked-chased.
A little later a bird was seen flying
back to BLM 1 (this was before
q68(3) was identified). The birds
were mostly using the big tree just
to the BLM 1 side of the main
BLM 2 tree. When there were birds
at BLM 2, I noticed that there
was no activity at BLM 1 (and vice versa)
This makes me believe that the
birds at BLM 2 were BLM 1 birds.
When there were birds seen at BLM 2,
I noticed 1 & 2 qq.
0745 2 qq and a 3 were showing interest
in the nest hole. One 9 was hesitant
to go in, and checked the Dap on
top: I couldn't identify the birds
because I was observing from BLM 2.
No bird seemed to stay in more than
5 min. Lots of going in & out. Could it
be that I missed such activity
yesterday, since I stopped watching at 0730
