Caught birds at a leisurely pace all morning. Started with grey skies and almost drizzle, then some late morning sunshine before the rain started just as we finished closing the nets about 12:30. It was nice to be worried that it might start to rain instead of worrying about it getting too hot! A few more birds - 30 new and 2 returns:
Black-capped Chickadee 1 House Wren 3 Swainson's Thrush 3 Gray Catbird 5 Yellow Warbler 5 new, 2 returns (1 banded last year, 1 banded in 2006!) Northern Waterthrush 1 (our 2nd this year) MacGillivray's Warbler 1 Common Yellowthroat 1 Yellow-breasted Chat 4 Green-tailed Towhee 1 Song Sparrow 1 Lincoln's Sparrow 1 Black-headed Grosbeak 1 (FOS) Brown-headed Cowbird 2 Open daily, weather permitting, through June 2.
