It was a slow day at the banding
station with only 20 new birds and 27 recaptures. I believe this may have been the first day
this season that recaptures surpassed new birds. The forecast for tomorrow is looking a little
grim at this point. A cold front is forecasted to move through overnight
bringing with it a fair amount rain that will likely linger through most of the
morning. If there is a break in the rain
tomorrow, we will certainly be out banding to see what new migrants the cold
front brought with it.
