A big kudos goes out to the banding team (Mattie, Josh, Claire, and Vicki) for doing a great job handling all these birds!
Great Crested Flycatcher (HY, sex unknown) |
Northern Parula (AHY male - left, HY male - right) |
This HY male Baltimore Oriole was not very cooperative and would not pose for a photo. Orioles can be sexed based on size with males being noticeably bigger (in the hand) than females. A wing chord measurement can usually separate the sexes.
