Although things picked up a bit today with 22 new birds and 4 recaptures, diversity was low with only Orange-crowned Warblers, White-crowned Sparrows, and a single Green-tailed Towhee showing up in the nets. White-crowned Sparrows were the most abundant, with 22 out of 26 birds being either Gambel's or Mountain White-crowned Sparrows.
