Lots of activity today - even with a brief closing mid-morning for wind, we banded 77 birds. Like Ira Sander's front yard, we had our first Nashville Warbler and Green-tailed Towhee today, plus a lovely Ovenbird. Here's the breakdown of the 77 new:
Western Wood Pewee 1 House Wren 4 Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1 Orange-crowned Warbler 8 Nashville Warbler 1 Yellow Warbler 5 Townsend's Warbler 1 Ovenbird 1 Common Yellowthroat 3 Wilson's Warbler 48 Green-tailed Towhee 1 Chipping Sparrow 1 Song Sparrow 2 We will be open 6 days per week (closed Mondays), weather permitting, through October 14. We are opening nets at 6:30 and should have birds back at the station by 7:15. We will close most days by about 11:30 (closing earlier now because of heat). School groups arrive most weekdays at about 9:30. The best time to visit (fewest people, most birds) is before 9:30 weekdays and Sundays. Come visit!
