CAPTAIN SAMS
Even with the increase in humidity, there were more migrants on the move this morning. We captured 30 new birds and 10 recaptures of 15 species. The highlights were several Prothonotary Warblers and a Worm-eating Warbler. We also recaptured a Northern Cardinal that we banded as a hatch-year on 8/15/2016, making this individual 10 years, 7 months old!
