It was a quite unusual day. Thrushes were around during the early morning, then a little lull in activity; during the last net check I guess everyone said it was last call so get into the net! Being the warmest part of the day and having several birds flying into the net seemed unusual for me. Anyhow, 23 bird species captured today. Western 'Palm' Warbler and Western 'Cordilleran' Flycatcher were the new species for the season.
