# roost holes =
16 April Put dog food feeder + log in granary
20 April 1030 They don't seem to be eating dog food. I'm not
sure who's here. I saw one bird, but it seemed
to have come from MacFlat.
23 April 1230 Dog Food log still has Food, as does Feeder.
14 May I've been cruising by here lots. I've yet to see any
birds, and the log still has dog food. Abandoned?
17 May Walt reports bird in over road hole.
24 May 1430 Walt climbs hole - 4 incubated eggs.
3 June 1230 Walt checks hole - EMPTY !!
24 Aug 1215-1315 Watched granary - no one showed !!
9 Sept 1000-1045 Saw 8'1011 and 4'1205 repeatedly in the
sycamore and the valley oak granaries. Twice saw a 3rd
bird (one look - a NOBA 8?) The 3rd bird seemed
to be chased away - not very vigorously. So I'm not
completely sure it wasn't 8'1297 or a new juv.
22 Sept 1100 Hello'd holes - nothing
1600-1700 Watch (esp 87 hole) No activity. Saw 4'1205
