1994 M. Stanback M. formicivorus RANA HNHR 13 Apr 0900 - 0930. lots acorus, where are the birds. Starling nest in the old separate door hole. The birds showed up w/in 5 min. They didn't seem nesty (though one did disappear near the high hole) I saw ♂ M- = 2189, ♀ W/M = 2184 ♂ R-WDB = 2188, RM? = RKMB? = 2188 One bird was shy - I'm not sure if I got any [illegible] ID. If I had to guess I'd say 4 birds. 20 Apr 1300 - 1320 Spy. No nestiness, just acorn work. 30 Apr 1015 - 1030 "" , tho maybe a peek into a hole 2 May a.m. These guy came over to Rant, but no "struggle" 3 May See Rant notes. Caught 2188 while Flycatching. Bled lapped, caged. Unfortunately, he died in captivity later in the day. I hate this job. 25 May Thawed him - measured testis: 8 mm x 5 mm
