I was able to get out both mornings this weekend by myself to do some
banding and had pretty good results. I ended up with 24 birds of 12
species even though Sunday was very windy and rain hit just as I was
making the last net run. Species caught confirm migration is still in
full swing but some groups are almost done. Warblers caught are
typical later fall migrants like Orange-crowned. Sparrows are
beginning to move through this area with good numbers of
White-throateds being seen.
