Bird Conservancy Banding Station at Barr, 10/3/15

[meredith]

A slow morning. Doesn't seem like much new arrived - we caught as many recaps (birds banded previously this season) as we did new today.  A total of 14 new:

Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1

Hermit Thrush 1

Orange-crowned Warbler 2

Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 2

Common Yellowthroat 2

Wilson's Warbler 2

Chipping Sparrow 1

Lincoln's Sparrow 1

White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 2

What will tomorrow bring?  Who knows.....come find out!

We have just a little over a week to go for this banding season....our last day will be Sunday, October 11. We will be open every day until then EXCEPT Thursday, 10/8. We are opening nets about 6:45, and running until noon or whenever it gets too hot or too windy or too slow or too whatever. School groups arrive about 9:30 a.m. most weekdays.
