1987 M. Stanback M. formicivorus R1 HNHR (18 Aug) real action is across the road, where a bunch of NOBA 99 and 93 are fighting it out for a rather uninviting granary tree by the now dry stream. The R1 99 are not over here, and the NOBA 99 are not introducing on the R1 granary. It's not Wolff birds- they are now a legitimate group, with same 9 and 2 banded 93 - and they seem to have a nest in the "traditional" Wolff hole. The new group seems to have affinities w PO Hill and range from the lone snags toward Fuch down to Wolff. They seem to be clashing w R1 (maybe) just across the road from the R1 road granary. Seen at R1: 99 804, 1248. Are we sure 9 804 is DBY?, I seem to be seeing 2B-Y repeatedly. I don't think I've seen 996. 1700 - Back to set strings for nets. Things quieter- 19 Aug 0615 - 0830 Tried to net birds. No luck. Not as active today. Noise heard at Road Warrior. (well, still very vocal, but much less chasing. The new group by R1 = San Sebastian R1 = 9 804, 9 996 (I think), NOBA 93, r maybe a baby 28 Aug Roost watch: some in road granary, some S of hill granary. * Group Update * 8 579 moved to Wolff 870700 ±1M 8 995 " 8 1123 " 8 1247 " At least 2 NOBA 88 (5277, 5278) are now breeders with 99 804, 996, 1248 arrive 870710 ±1M
