The importance of banding birds was again demonstrated "This Week at Hilton
Pond" (York SC USA) when we acquired amazing information about a
far-ranging Pine Siskin and a geriatric Brown Thrasher (see photo). Read
all about it in our photo essay #764 for 22-31 January 2022 at

As always, we include lists of all birds banded or recaptured during the
period. And now we're finally caught up for January! :-)
Happy (Mid-winter) Nature Watching!
