Things continue to be slow. There were flocks of Chipping Sparrows around at both the beginning and end of morning, but most avoided the nets. Here's the breakdown of the 19 new birds:
-- Hermit Thrush 2
Grey Catbird 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 3
Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 2
Wilson's Warbler 2
Chipping Sparrow 4
Song Sparrow 1
White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 3
White-crowned Sparrow, Mountain 1
We are open 6 days each week, weather permitting, through October 16. We have 2 more closed days - Tues, Oct 4 and Wed, Oct 12. We are opening nets at about 6:50 a.m. and most days we start closing between 11 a.m. and 12 noon. We will open later and/or close earlier if it is very hot, very cold, wet, windy, etc. There are school groups most weekday mornings, usually arriving around 9:30. Best times to visit, if you like lots of birds and fewer humans, are early mornings during the week and Sundays.
