[cobirds] RMBO Barr Banding Station Report, 10/14/12

We all agreed that this was a perfect final day for the fall - we watched/listened to the Cranes take off, then caught lots of Juncos and 3 Sharp-shinned Hawks. (The first hour+ was pretty quiet - not surprising, since we had at least the 3 Sharpies we caught flying about.) An adult male, and a
