As this unseasonably warm weather continues, banding remains very slow. Only 3 birds banded yesterday (10/20):
Song Sparrow 1 Dark-eyed Junco, Slate-colored 2 Today was slightly better, with 10 new birds banded. We did have a nice return - we caught a Flicker that we banded as a hatch year in 2021. We don't catch very many Flickers and I can't remember ever catching one again, even though they are around the station every season. Here's today's breakdown: Red-shafted Flicker 1, banded 2021 White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 4 Dark-eyed Junco, Slate-colored 2 Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 2 Dark-eyed Junco, Pink-sided 1 American Goldfinch 1 Tomorrow is our last day; we will take down the station at the end of the morning.
