Well, maybe we are going to have a migration. Migrants may have outnumbered summer residents today for the first time, plus it was just a good day - 54 birds banded with about 2/3rds of our nets up and open. (Things are finally drying out - we should have the full station up by this weekend.) Here's today's breakdown:
Dusky Flycatcher 2 (First of Season) Cordilleran Flycatcher 1 (FOS) Black-capped Chickadee 1 House Wren 3 Orange-crowned Warbler 1 (FOS) Yellow Warbler 20 Northern Waterthrush 1 (FOS) MacGilllivray's Warbler 2 Common Yellowthroat 1 Wilson's Warbler 21 Chipping Sparrow 1 (FOS) Open every day through Labor Day weekend. Will let you know tomorrow which day we will close next week.
