CAPTAIN SAMS
The slow down continued today with only 14 new birds and 9 recaptures of 7 species. We did band two new Palm Warblers which we haven't seen in two weeks. The southwest winds are supposed to shift around to the northwest overnight which hopefully will bring in some new birds in for tomorrow.
