Today was slower than normal, with a cold morning and steady winds hampering our banding efforts. Sparrows once again dominated, making up 8 out of the 11 birds captured.
-- Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1
White-crowned Sparrow (Gambel's) 4 new 2 recapture
White-crowned Sparrow (Mountain) 2
Spotted Towhee 1
Juniper Titmouse 1 recapture
Visitors are welcome at the banding station - we start getting birds at around 7:45 and close around 11:30, weather permitting. Banding goes until this friday the 11th. A front that is expected to move through on Wed/Thurs may interfere with banding on those days. School groups arrive at around 9:30, so if you would like to visit it's best to arrive before then!
