Re: [cayugabirds-l] Possible other RHW Nest

2013-09-09 Thread Michele Mannella
I was there at May's Point yesterday afternoon, and watched one red-headed
woodpecker going in and out of another hole further north in the same grove
of dead trees. He would put his head in and pull it out, shaking the wood
dust off. Then he would go all the way in, disappear for a few seconds,
then stick his head out.  I don't recall anyone reporting this possible
second nest at May's Point.

 That looks like the European Starling nest that was in the tree next to
 the woodpeckers.

 right is a hole where two babies are looking out.  They appear to be even
 younger RHW young.  Please see if you agree or is this some other bird.
  You can tell the hole is being actively used due to the whitewash down the
 front.  These babies appear younger than the one that fledged yesterday.
  Are they RHW babies or not?  I personally never saw a parent go to this
 hole while I was there-only the bottom of three hole.

[cayugabirds-l] Possible other RHW Nest
