Interesting that Red-breasted Nuthatches are already on the move...had one at my house the other day too.

A day much like yesterday - less than half our nets up and heat (although somewhat less humidity). Closed early again because of the weather.

Also like yesterday, captures were dominated by Yellow Warblers, probably all summer residents that will soon begin their migration south. (We have caught 4 Yellows so far that were already banded, and they were all banded on opening day - August 23 - last year.) Here's today's breakdown:
Downy Woodpecker 1
Red-breasted Nuthatch 1
House Wren 2
Yellow Warbler 18 new, 2 banded last year
Common Yellowthroat 1
Wilson's Warbler 2
Chipping Sparrow 1
We are getting the super weed whacker out tomorrow, and hope to get most of the rest of the nets up before the weekend. The ground is finally drying out! Hoping the weather cools down but the predicted rain waits until Monday when we are closed.
Our opportunities to visit start Friday. There are one-hour slots (up to 15 visitors at a time) from 7:30-8:30 most weekday mornings (Tues-Fri, we are closed on Mon) and 8, 9 , and 10 a.m. one-hour time slots on the weekends. Click here to make a reservation. It is pretty cool to see several fall warblers side-by-side in the hand!
