Yeah...spring is here and the nets were opened today. Quite slow today;
nonetheless, great to get out into the field.
Species captured include: ruby-crowned kinglet, American robin, and
Northern cardinal.
One cardinal was banded on 4 May 2010, and another on 24 May 2009! Very
exciting.
Next banding sessions will be Tues. the 19th and Wed. the 20th, weather
permitting.
Species observed yesterday and today include: brown headed cowbird,
numerous ruby-crowned kinglets, hermit thrush, yellow-rumped warlbers, belted
kingfisher, pied-billed grebes, American crows, house finches, red-bellied
woodpecker, downy woodpecker, black-capped chickadee, common grackles,
Eastern Phoebe, tree swallows, barn swallows, great horned owls, Northern
flicker, yellow-bellied sapsucker, and killdeer copulating!
Cheers for now, Mickey
