Another chilly morning but at least the wind was not an issue. We captured 21 new birds and 15 recapture of 9 different species. The highlight of the day was recapturing the Yellow-breasted Chat that we had banded last week. It still has not put on any fat so maybe it is thinking about spending the winter.
