Pleasant, windless (yay!) morning; we caught a nice mix of birds.  47 new:

Red-shafted Flicker 1

House Wren 1

Ruby-crowned Kinglet 2

Swainson's Thrush 1

Hermit Thrush 1

Gray Catbird 1

Orange-crowned Warbler 6

Yellow Warbler 1

Wilson's Warbler 27

Green-tailed Towhee 1

Clay-colored Sparrow 1

Song Sparrow 1

White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 2

Common Grackle 1 (Surprisingly, this male COGR was the coolest bird of the day - with its multicolored iridescence beautiful in the sunlight)

We are open 6 days per week, weather permitting, through Sunday, October 11. Our next closed day is Wednesday, 9/23. We are opening nets at 6:30, and will run until noon or whenever it gets too hot or too windy or too whatever. School groups arrive about 9:30 a.m. most weekdays.
