Gamble's White-crowned Sparrow 7 (and 2 recaptures)

Spotted Towhee 6 (and 2 recaptures)

House Finch 1

Slate-colored Junco 1

Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1

Orange-crowned Warbler 1

Wilson's Warbler 1

Banding will continue at Connected Lakes State Park Monday through Friday from 10/9 to 10/13 from approximately 7am to 1 pm, weather permitting.
