Birds were out and about on this cool, almost rainy morning. Still running with only about 1/3 of our nets up, we caught 42 new birds, with 6 new species for the season:
Willow Flycatcher 1 (FOS) Least Flycatcher 1 (FOS) Western Flycatcher 1 (FOS) Cassin's Vireo 1 (FOS) Warbling Vireo 1 Black-capped Chickadee 1 new, 1 banded 2014 Red-breasted Nuthatch 1 (FOS) House Wren 5 Orange-crowned Warbler 1 Yellow Warbler 3 Townsend's Warbler 1 (FOS) MacGillivray's Warbler 1 Common Yellowthroat 1 Wilson's Warbler 20 House Sparrow 2 This fall, we will be open 6 days a week, weather permitting, through at least October 11. The closed day will be a weekday and will vary depending on when we do not have a school group - the next 2 weeks we are closed on Mondays (9/7 and 9/14). We are opening nets at 6:30, and will run until noon or when it gets too hot. (Given the weather report, it is unlikely we will make it to noon any day this week!) School groups arrive about 9:30 a.m. most weekdays.
