No banding 01/26/2015

I rolled my ankle last Monday. Still trying to heal and don't need to walk over roots and in the swamp.

Will try again next week.

Happy New Year!

Our fisrt Sunday of 2025 was greeted by chilly temperatures and a bunch of recaptures. The sounds of American Robins filled the air until they were briefly replaced by a huge flock of American and Fish Crows.

Our first bird of the morning was a Hermit Thrush. A second one was brought in later in the day.



Gray Catbirds are pretty scarce right now so it was nice to get a recaptured one that was first banded a couple years ago.



Surprisingly, our only new bird was a male Northern Cardinal. Thought we caught them all already!



Checking the nets by the lake got us a nice sighting of a family of Otters. They were very curious of us and played around in the river for a while.



The day also got us a couple recaptured Carolina Wrens.



Next Sunday is suppose to be cold as well. We may just sleep in. Stay tuned.
