" Main granary 2088
total 3163.
Oh yes, at 0900, on my way up Haystack Hill, I noticed
3 ACWs sitting in a tree near the Fence near
the 'top' of the hill. 2 were ♂♂, they all 3
flew to another tree, and then flew to Y!
24 Mar Saw 108#3 (MKB), as well as (maybe) 1206. For
this bird I saw OTW. No nestiness
27 Mar 1630-1730 Saw 571, 1083, 1084, 941, 1078, 1206
No mate guarding
1 April 1345-1445 Nestiness - mg watch. No action.
a B♀ sat alone from 1430 to 1445. Last yus
hole is shot. There's a gaping hole going into .4
From the end of the snag - repair time!
2 April repaired 86 hole
5 April 1650 Acorns 870 (3 way count)
13 April 0630-0815 Snoop r spy. I found a suspect hole
in tree uphill From the granary. Climbed it, but
wasn't confident in the peep.
15 April 0620-0700 Watched the free uphill From the granary.
Only once did a bird go near the "new" hole - and
then only to peek around the bark. Great - the vapido
graph is Fucked.
