Captain Sam's
This morning was the coldest temperatures we've experienced this season. Today was a slightly more productive day than yesterday, Capturing 134 new birds and 16 recaptures. Our most abundant species was the Myrtle Warbler. The highlights of the day was a Hatch year Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. We also caught an after hatch year Eastern Towhee, seen below.

Little Bear
Today we got another good push, similar to yesterday, with 83 new birds and 5 recaptures of 21 species. Gray Catbirds, Ruby-crowned Kinglets, Common Yellowthroat and Western Palm Warblers were our most common catches. We are continuing to get a few each of Swamp Sparrows, Song Sparrows, Hermit Thrushes, Swainson's Thrushes, and some good warbler diversity. We also got the first Scarlet Tanager for Little Bear, a hatch-year female.
