Today at the banding station we had 4 new birds and 7 recaptures making it the slowest day so far this season. Currently a high pressure system is sitting over the southeast causing unfavorable conditions for migration into our area. We expect these conditions to remain in place for the next week or so. Even though migration seems to have stalled a bit, Common Yellowthroats are making their way out to KIBS with 3 of them being banded today.
