Beautiful day to drop the nets just before sunrise in Powhatan this morning.
The number of birds banded did not reflect all that were seen and heard. This
was our second time out this spring. We counted 50 species on the seen/ heard
list-highlights being:
Cooper's Hawk
Common Yellowth roat
Ovenbird
Northern Parula
Prairie Warbler
Myrtle Warbler
Yellow-throated Vireo
White-eyed Vireo
Red-eyed Vireo
Swamp Sparrow
Great-crested Flycatcher
Blue-Grey Gnatcatcher
Bald Eagle
Northern Harrier
Yellow Warbler
Ruby-Throated Hummingbird
Alas, all that we netted were:
Carolina Chickadee- recap from April 26 2010-same net
White-eyed Vireo -recap from exactly one year ago within 40 feet of original
capture
Swamp Sparrow
Field Sparrow
White-throated Sparrow
Ruby-crowned Kinglet
Perfect day to be outside.
