This morning Jethro Runco, the bander at First Landing State Park in Va 
Beach, caught a banded, young male prairie warbler on its first northward 
migration.  It turns out, following investigation, that that very bird was 
banded by Jethro last Aug. 26th as a juvenile in its first southward 
migration....at Kiptopeke!  Today's capture makes Jethro one a very small 
set of banders who can claim making a foreign recovery of their own bird!
