Well migration remains slow but seems to be picking up just a bit. Today we caught 14 birds of 10 species and it felt a bit more like spring, with Bullock's Orioles chattering and warbler chip notes (other than the Yellow-rumps!) coming from the trees. We had our first MacGillivray's Warbler and Northern Waterthrush and also sighted (but did not band) a Blackpoll Warbler. Here are our totals from today:
Orange-crowned Warbler - 1 House Wren - 2 Yellow-rumped 'Myrtle' Warbler - 1 Northern Waterthrush - 1 MacGillivray's Warbler - 1 Swainson's Thrush - 3 Hermit Thrush - 2 'Gambel's' White-crowned Sparrow - 1 Spotted Towhee - 1 American Robin - 1 recapture from 2019 We are open 3 days per week (Friday - Sunday) through May 30th. We'll also be open Thurs May 20th.
