Foggy and Mixy...

Was it too foggy? Can't even remember anymore. Mixy? Is that some kind of new word? Sure... So, a slow start and a mix of birds through the morning.
Started put the day with a couple of House Wrens. Then the quiet began.

A bit later on, we recaptured a Carolina Wren. Again, quiet.

The day didn't really pick up until we were headed toward closing and we got a Yellow-rumped Warbler, sub-species: Myrtle Warbler. This was an young male.

As we taking the nets down, a Ruby-crowned Kinglet, female, was in net 9.

Then, a young male was found at Net 21. The first male Ruby-crowned Kinglet in years.

Right next to it was another Yellow-rumped Warbler in the same net.

Temperatures are scheduled to be nice next Sunday. Some one bring those Robins closer to the ground. They are all over the Orlando area right now.
