Today was the last day of the 2017 fall migration banding season. It was a slow one with 8 new birds and 13 recaptures of 9 different species. The excitement came in the first net run when I got an American Robin out of net 26. This is a species that I had pretty much written off for this season, but... we finally got one. We usually band a few robins each season at Captain Sam's but they have escaped capture before today.
