Wednesday's Results: 2 More Days Left . . .

We banded 25 new birds and had 18 recaptures of 6 different species.  It was kind of a surprise that we captured an unbanded Carolina Wren this morning.  I figured we had banded them all by now because we haven't captured an unbanded one since September 16th.
