1988 M. Stanback M. Formicivorus LA2 HNHR 29 Mar 0810 Door to 87b nest hole had Fallen out. I replaced it, but didn't have a hammer. Saw 1117 (RW). Also saw NOBA 8, who seemed at home here and was chasing intruders, of which there were several; & 1117 was chasing another bird. The NOBA 8 has been here @ 1 yr, why was he removed? 1140 & 1234 is at Big T Dec 97 Acorn Count: 5900 11 Apr 0900 Repaired 87b hole 28 Apr 0700 Nest! Incest!(?)!

They had been killed. Though the weather's been bad, the didn't appear to have starved. All had peck marks. I also Found 2 crown Feathers in the nest. My guess is infanticide - the breeder 8 (assume it's the daughter) died and was replaced. However, I never heard any weirdness here. Baby weights are as Follows: 16 May 0800-0915 Census: 9 1371 (MV-LB/R) and 1117 (RW) Also 2 88 (I think). I had BDB/LB DB or something like that. Birds flew to west area, but hello got nothing.
