Opened nets under cool grey skies this morning. After 2 hours and 7 birds, it started to sprinkle so we closed up. As we headed out, the drizzle stopped and it cleared up a bit, but we could see dark grey in the west, and, given the slowness of bird activity, we decided to call it a day. Our 5 first captures (the other 2 birds were birds we'd banded earlier this year) were:
House Wren 1 return, banded 5/27/11 Orange-crowned Warbler 1 Song Sparrow 1 Lincoln's Sparrow 1 White-crowned Sparrow, Gambels 1 Tomorrow promises to be more of the same weather; we'll likely be making an early morning decision about whether to open. And, again, just a REMINDER: We will be CLOSED Friday and Saturday, then open starting Sunday through June 2.
