Friday was a good day (14 banded; 2 returns from prior years); Saturday was
slow (5 banded). We are catching most of our birds in just a few nets where
the bushes have leafed out and/or are flowering. Most foliage just
beginning to sprout leaves.
We caught one new species for the banding
I'm about 3 or 4 miles north on Wadsworth, and bushtits have been increasing
here. Not seen 10 years ago, now uncommon but regular in my yard. This has
been occurring over the past 3 or 4 years.
