[cobirds] RMBO Barr Banding Station Report, Sunday, 9/1

[Meredith]

This weather upheaval brought in birds - caught 76 new birds today.  It felt
like the old days - from years back when the birds appeared early in the
morning and Wilson's Warblers were 40-60% of the total:

 

Western Wood-pewee 3

Western Flycatcher 2

Warbling Vireo  1

Black-capped Chickadee   1 return (banded 9/17/12)

House Wren   6

Swainson's Thrush  2 (FOS)

Yellow Warbler 13

MacGillivray's Warbler   4

Common Yellowthroat  2

Wilson's Warbler  42 (all but one were hatch year birds, almost
evenly split between males and females)

 

Our closed day this week is Fri (9/6), next week Mon (9/9).
