Is this the myst bird from last time? OK, now I

I confused or is this all fucked. A 9 went to
the last yrs (86) nest hole in the bee tree, staying
in @ 1 min, (and coming out w a wood chip?) Now
someone's in again. STARLINGS!!
25 April am. saw a bird leave From the vicinity of the nest-
may have been a starling. I spied on the 86
hole From the gully From 1030-1050. Saw nothing.
I heard activity earlier near 85 hole.
30 April Watched here twice this am For a total of @ 40
mins. Last yrs hole has a hole about 1 Ft above
it - in which there are starlings. I think I
heard-saw AcW's go to the 86 hole. The 85 hole
Fell - looks like it happened last night (wet+windy)
