Howdy all,
I am now back at the banding station after having a great time at my best 
friends wedding back in KS. 
Here is a quick rundown of the totals for when I was gone and Dr. Bob Reilly 
covered for me. 
Lots of HERMIT THRUSHES, WHITE-THROATED SPARROWS and YELLOW-RUMPS. But the 
capture of a FOX SPARROW on the 5th was a new species for the banding station 
this season.
