Hi Cobirders We had a decent arrival of Wilson's Warblers today. We banded 48 Wilson's Warblers for a season total of 548 Wilson's banded since 31 Aug. Last year from 25 Aug - 25 Sep we banded a total of 249 WIWAs. We also had a few flycatchers around again. Patroling the woods were a few Sharp-shinned Hawks. We caught a juvenile male weighing in at 95 grams, he was a good deal lighter than the Common Grackles we had last week. I am convinced that our Vireo from yesterday was a Blue-headed, we didn't see him today.
