After last night's storm, I was curious to see what bird species would be present today during banding. The banded birds appeared to have moved on. Eleven bird species were captured. We did hear a Bullock's Oriole today which most of the orioles should be farther south as they are an early fall migrant. Surprisingly, Blue Grosbeaks have graced us with their presence the past two days. They are also and early fall migrant.
