Hello all,
The KY Dept of Fish and Wildlife is conducting a pilot migration banding
project off the Pea Ridge loop trail behind the Salato Wildlife Education
Center. Myself and others have operated mist nets occasionally (3-4
times/week) since September 18th. Aside from 5 ovenbirds, a catbird, and
winter wren (9/28) captured during the last part of Sept and early Oct, we
just got our first noticeable push of migrants this past week behind the
cold front. Highlights are listed below. All of the warblers had moderate
to heavy fat loads.
10/8
Black-throated blue (hatching-year female)
Winter wrens (2)
Brown creepers (2)
White-throated sparrow
10/10
Black-throated blue (HY male)
Hooded (adult female)
Magnolia (adult male)
Black-and-white (HY male)
Tennessee (2)
Chestnut-sided (very fat HY female)
Black-throated green (2 adult males)
Golden-crowned kinglet
10/12
Hooded (very fat adult male)
Wood thrush (HY)
