Dec 88 Acorn Count: 1300
20 Mar 1630 Saw 5 birds, 4 sat together (1D'd 1446). I'm
going to consider it a Full census! (1446, 1447, 1595, 1596, 1597)

17 Apr 1800 Bird in hole!!
18 Apr 1300 4 opaque eggs! Can barely reach; needs chips.
22 Apr 1030 Still eggs. Added chips to make hole shallow.
23 Apr 0900 Still eggs, but they cried when I covered the hole.
24 Apr 1200 Stole runt to put in Bian
25 Apr 0930 RW = 5.6, LW = 7.15, B = 5.2. I stole RW + B
to put into Blm 1.
26 Apr 1300 The kid in there (LW) = 11.9. I stuck in 2
new kids, belly (CVI) and a Blm 1 kid (5.8). Blm 1
isn't looking good. (Has ink on head)
(Lynn reports that the Feeding rate decreased after I
added babies - spent more time brooding!)
27 Apr 1315 belly is alive but declining, Blm 1 gone. Pipe
Kid = 16.4". I added Blm 1 RL = 15.35
28 Apr 1500 RL = 19.7 (9.3) Y / LL = LP = 18.5 (8.95)
2 May 0930 Y = 36.9 (12.2) / P = 34.5 (12.6)
