More Common Yellowthroats . . .

We banded 81 new birds and had 14 recaptures of 12 different species.  Once again, the nets were crawling with Common Yellowthroats.  They made up more than 75% of all banded birds today! 

The wind picked up late in the morning and we ended up shutting the nets down a little bit early.
