5 April 1630 Acorn Count: 3 way count gave 3100. But
I'll put total at 3200. East square had 10 acorns,
west square 13.
1 May 1400 Bird in hole in granary. Hole has fresh chips but
no eggs. This door is a shambles (if I didn't bring DAP
up) I checked the hole in the other tree. No fresh chips.
Update: Ian came for egg toss pics, I suggested LHAY. He set
up, but only 1 egg was laid (how many 99?). The
next day 1 more laid (or did they skip?). Anyway,
they've abandoned. Damn.
20 May 1030 So we didn't hafta remove the eggs huh, well,
The hole had 4 warm eggs: #1 #2 from the
abandoned nest, a runt egg, and 1 other egg.
So the viable clutch size = 1
29 May 1410 Shit!!! 1 baby = 30.8 + 1 egg (#10) Shit.
