This is shaping up to be the biggest last week of fall banding that I can remember. Cloud cover kept things cool, allowing us to band a little later today, and we got a couple of noon-time flocks of mostly Yellow-rumpeds. Total of 64 new birds today:
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 7 Hermit Thrush 3 Orange-crowned Warbler 6 Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 26 Yellow-rumped Warbler, Myrtle 3 Song Sparrow 3 White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 2 Dark-eyed Junco, Slate-colored 1 Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 2 Dark-eyed Junco, Pink-sided 7 American Goldfinch 4 Two more days! We will take the station down at the end of banding on Sunday.
