Whether the bad air quality from the fires or wind direction or something else, we had a slow day on Sunday/yesterday. We were kept busy because we had a slew of recaptures of birds already caught/banded this season - birds were out and about, just very little new - of the new captures, only the lone Swainson's Thrush was for certain just stopping to refuel.
Here's the 14 new plus 2 returns: Swainson's Thrush 1 Gray Catbird 6 Yellow Warbler 5 new, 1 banded 2019 American Redstart 1 Common Yellowthroat 1 Yellow-breasted Chat 1 banded 2022 We will be open Tuesday-Sunday, weather permitting, through the end of May.
