About a dozen bird lovers spent a beautiful last Sunday of summer at the Barr Banding Station. We welcomed the first junco and towhees (a Spotted and a Green-tailed) of the season, and at least one visitor noted that the Yellow-rumpeds were in the neighborhood if not in our nets. A leisurely day, we banded the following:
House Wren 2 Hermit Thrush 2 Orange-crowned Warbler 2 Yellow Warbler 1 Wilson's Warbler 6 Green-tailed Towhee 1 Spotted Towhee 1 Clay-colored Sparrow 1 Lincoln's Sparrow 3 Pink-sided Junco 1 Station will be closed tomorrow, 9/21, then open every day (weather permitting) through 9/29. Next possible closed date is 9/30. Come visit!
