No surprise that we were rained out on Tuesday. But the nets pretty much dried out over night and we were up and running on schedule this morning. Again caught a good number of birds for this station, with 30 new and 1 return:
Western Wood-pewee 5 (FOS) Least Flycatcher 1 Dusky Flycatcher 2 Northern Rough-winged Swallow 1 House Wren 4 Swainson's Thrush 3 Gray Catbird 2 Virginia's Warbler 1 Yellow Warbler 1 new, 1 banded in 2014 MacGillivray's Warbler 3 Common Yellowthroat 3 Yellow-breasted Chat 1 Lincoln's Sparrow 1 Red-winged Blackbird 1 Brown-headed Cowbird 1 Open daily, weather permitting, through June 2, EXCEPT for May 30. It is almost always better to visit early in the morning. We are opening nets at 6:30, and most days will have birds back at the station by 7:15. There are school groups every weekday, arriving about 9:45. We aim to close by noon most days, earlier if it is very hot, very cold, or very windy.
