1993 M. Stanback M. Formicivorus RAVI H N H R 24 Apr 1200 RL=13.2, RW=12.5, LW=10.3, B=10.6=LL 26 Apr 1200 RL=23.2=R, RW=22=DG, LW=18.2=Y, LL =20.3=DB. Fat r sassy. When will Moon eggs hatch. 28 Apr 0700 B=31.3, R=30.8. Took these 2 to KOUT, but they had Failed (except For 1 kid RL who I revived r took back to RAVI), so I took B+rR to HAZ, where they are several days too young. I bled them First (2202 r 2203). Moon eggs gone. 1 May 0745 DG=DG/R=44.5 (13.6), vOBA:LB/W=36 (12.5) Y=Y0=42 (13.75). Removed these babies so we can get an egg toss photo. To CVI, OK EO. event Oh subtract 1 to make 43.5, 35, r 41 9 May laid 1st egg. Was not marked (watt!) I was gone 10 May All day copulation watch. No cops seen. Just mateguarding WO was like glue on the 9 all day. GG just sat in the corner, OO eat in the nest, - HF Flew back r Forth all day (Zugunruhe) 11 May 0800 Gave mealworms, marked egg #3. All eggs warm - I guess they'll quit at 4. So bleeding them 2 day probably doesn't mean squat. Shit. I wish I could've bled them earlier (like sev days ago). But, oh-fuck it. See cap recs for bleed into. 13 May 1700 Shouldaknown. 5 eggs! 19 May 1=25.9 x 20.3, 2=26 x 19.4, 3=25.95 x 19.8, 4=25.6 x 20.35, 5=26.85 x 20.7. Egg 2 dead - I removed it. 23 May 0630 Eggs 1 r 3 hatched about same time, but chick from 1 was stuck inside (helped out). 1=RW, 3=LW
