The highlight of the morning was a banded Gray Catbird, band 1581-11016. This is not one of my bands. Anyone on these lists care to claim it? I have a report into the Banding Office, and will let you know when I hear from them. Other birds banded: 1 Rose-breasted Grosbeak 2 Mourning Warblers 1 Ovenbird 1 Lincoln's Sparrow 1 Northern Waterthrush 3 Common Yellowthroats 1 House Wren An Indigo Bunting flew under my net. dan -- Dan or Erika Tallman http://danerika.googlepages.com/home danerika at gmail.com ".... the best shod travel with wet feet" "Beware of all enterprises that require new clothes ...."--Thoreau -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

While flying, it's white secondaries caught my eye and when it perched on the trunk of the snag I got a great look. It flew over Vermillion road about 1/2 mile north of the entrance to Park Hill Cemetery in the Hunter's Park neighborhood. As I rode down Amity Creek and into Lester Park I heard several migrants, including: Least Flycatcher Great Crested Flycatcher Nashville Warbler Chestnut-sided Warbler Black-throated Green Warbler Yellow-rumped Warbler Black-and-white Warbler Ovenbird Rose-breasted Grosbeak Yesterday in Lester Park I also heard Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Hermit Thrush, and Northern Parula. All this seems a bit early this year. I've got a Northern Cardinal in my yard sitting on three eggs since at least last Saturday. Lot's of spring ephemerals are also blooming here. Our Hepatica and Bloodroot are almost done, but Anemone and Trillium are coming on and Bellwort is justing pushing up out of the ground. The Ammelanchier trees have also burst into bloom in the last couple of days.

Must have been my overzealousness about being "right" about something. Actually Caprimulgidae and Caprimulgiformes are my favorite birdie word so I am amazed that I missed my opportunity to use it in a sentence. Darn. Thanks for the clarity.
