Things went back to normal today with 14 new birds and 22 recaptures of 10 different species. The highlight of the day was a late (or overwintering) Prairie Warbler. The last time we banded a Prairie was way back on 23 October. Most Prairie Warblers spend the winter in Florida and the Caribbean but it seems an increasing number of individuals are calling South Carolina their wintering home, especially along the coast.
