[cobirds] RMBO Barr Banding Station Report, 9/21/12

Slow day at Barr……similar to yesterday without the warbler numbers.  We did continue this week’s pattern with one rare-ish bird – a HY, male Tennessee Warbler (not many historically, although we had 2 last year), which we got to compare with an Orange-crowned in the next run.  Continued to have a wide spectrum of earlier to later migrants – from Yellow Warblers and House Wrens to a Junco (recap, so not listed below).  Here’s the break-down of 21 new birds:

 

Dusky Flycatcher              2

House Wren       2

Ruby-crowned Kinglet   3

Hermit Thrush   2

Gray Catbird       1

Orange-crowned Warbler            1

Tennessee Warbler        1

Yellow Warbler 1

Wilson’s Warbler              4

Song Sparrow    1

Gambel’s White-crowned Sparrow          3

 

Day off next week is Wednesday.  Otherwise open every day, weather permitting.
