After a better day yesterday, we were back to the 2023 normal today - just 8 birds banded. We were hampered by wind, which moved around the station in gusts; we finally gave up and closed early. We did manage to catch 2 of the Blue Jays that have been around the station all season, taunting us with their various vocalizations. Here's today's 8:
Blue Jay 2 Hermit Thrush 1 Wilson's Warbler 1 Spotted Towhee 1 Song Sparrow 1 Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 2 If you would like to visit our station, we have one-hour slots (up to 15 visitors at a time) from 7:30-8:30 most weekday mornings (Tues-Fri, we are closed on Mon) and 8, 9, and 10 a.m. one-hour time slots on the weekends. As long as the heat continues, you are more likely to see birds if you come earlier in the morning.
