Fall technically began a few days ago, but it was today that we hit a turning point at the station that really made it feel official; a species of sparrow outnumbered the Wilson's Warblers for newly banded birds. That honor belonged to the White-crowned Sparrows (all Gambel's). We had 21 newly banded birds of 8 species today, here are the totals:
House Wren - 2 Ruby-crowned Kinglet - 1 Wilson's Warbler - 6 Orange-crowned Warbler - 2 Song Sparrow - 1 Lincoln's Sparrow - 1 Oregon Junco - 1 Gambel's White-crowned Sparrow - 7 We are open 6 days a week, weather permitting through October 23.
