They also repeatedly visited the upper part of the big tree on the back hill (behind the 86 tree) See map on back. I've hello'd the 88 hole 2 times in the last week or so - nada. Patti did a spy watch there too - nada. Maybe they're just getting going. They have alot of acorns r @ 6 birds. I then hello holes - no one at 88 but there is a hole where I saw birds visiting on the back hill - and there was a bird sitting right below it. 1400 climb ↑ hole - incomplete - and it doesn't really look completable.
