The weather was very bizarre this morning so I was unsure if I could keep 
my nets open, but the weather died down and as a result we got a great 
variety of birds! Today seems to be the day for Woodpeckers as we caught 
our first Northern Flicker (intergrade) and the first banding record for a 
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. More pictures would be appreciated if you were at 
the station, as we believe we do have a hybrid on our hands. Thank you to 
the MAMBO group for bringing me goodies and your awesome company today. I 
am going to post the link to my Western Bird Banding Association Webinar 
video to this update if you're interested in hearing me talk about net set 
up at Chico and a bird-banding demo.
