Hi Cobirders Today was less birdy overall but we banded 32 birds! This tally was helped by a flock of American Robins that came through with 12 getting banded. We also banded 1 Downy Woodpecker, 2 Western Wood-Pewees, 2 Willow Flycatchers, 2 Hammond's Flycatchers, 1 House Wren, 1 RED-EYED VIREO, 1 Swainson's Thrush, 2 Gray Catbirds, recap Brown Thrasher, 5 Wilson's Warblers, 1 Lark Sparrow, 1 Blue Grosbeak and 1 Bullock's Oriole.
WARNING for the first time in many years banding at the Holmes Grove (but just my second in fall) we found a decent-sized Prairie Rattlesnake very near one of the trails we course through many times a day.
