[cobirds] RMBO Barr Banding Station Report, 9/10/13

Opened under cloudy, near-rain conditions.  Started slow, then picked up right before it started to drizzle at 10 a.m.   42 birds banded today:

 

Hammond’s Flycatcher  1 (FOS)

Dusky Flycatcher              1

Cassin’s Vireo    2

House Wren       3

Gray Catbird       1

Orange-crowned Warbler            2

Common Yellowthroat  1

Wilson’s Warblers            30

Lincoln’s Sparrow             1

 

Our aim is to be open every day this week, but we will close when it starts to rain, and if it is raining at 6:30 a.m. we probably will not open that day.  But if it stays mostly cloudy, we should continue to see birds coming through.  Next closed day is 9/20 (a week from Friday).
