Pleasant, windless (yay!) morning; we caught a nice mix of birds. 47 new: Red-shafted Flicker 1 House Wren 1 Ruby-crowned Kinglet 2 Swainson's Thrush 1 Hermit Thrush 1 Gray Catbird 1 Orange-crowned Warbler 6 Yellow Warbler 1 Wilson's Warbler 27 Green-tailed Towhee 1 Clay-colored Sparrow 1 Song Sparrow 1 White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 2 Common Grackle 1 (Surprisingly, this male COGR was the coolest bird of the day - with its multicolored iridescence beautiful in the sunlight)
We are open 6 days per week, weather permitting, through Sunday, October 11. Our next closed day is Wednesday, 9/23. We are opening nets at 6:30, and will run until noon or whenever it gets too hot or too windy or too whatever. School groups arrive about 9:30 a.m. most weekdays.
