Friday's Results

Things are starting to look up!  Bird activity seems to be increasing everyday.  Hopefully the trend will continue.   

 

Today we banded 22 new birds with 5 recaptures of 11 different species.  Northern Waterthrushes dominated the nets again with 8 banded.  Highlights included 2 YELLOW WARBLERS and another VEERY.
