CAPTAIN SAMS
It was another day similar to the last several days except warmer with more mosquitoes, a strange mix for late November. We were cut short by rain showers but before the rain moved in, we captured 11 new birds and 8 recaptures of 7 species. We did capture another Eastern Bluebird and a Sharp-shinned Hawk.
