We seem to be on an up and down schedule, every other day, and this was a "down" day. Banded 24 birds, and they came slowly throughout the morning. Stayed nice and cool.
Downy Woodpecker 1 (FOS)
House Wren 4
American Robin 1 (FOS)
Orange-crowned Warbler 2
Common Yellowthroat 2
Wilson's Warbler 14
This fall, we will be open 6 days a week, weather permitting, through at least October 11. The closed day will be a weekday and will vary depending on when we do not have a school group - the next 2 weeks we are closed on Mondays (9/7 and 9/14). We are opening nets at
6:30, and will run until noon or when it gets too hot. School groups arrive about 9:30 a.m. most weekdays.
