Wekiva Basin Bird Banding

Another quiet weekend. Every migrant seems to have shifted West. Oh, well. But, we were joined by the UCF Knighthawks who got to spend some fresh air with us and got to see a few birds banded today.

We captuered an new Northern Cardinal which is odd. Thought we had them all banded. Maybe now.

Our next bird was a recaptured Common Yellowthroat. It seemed different from the last time we caught it a couple of weeks ago. It is showing a very pronouced yellow patch on its eyebrow.



The President of the Knighthawks got to release the Common Yellowthroat.



We finally got one of the passing Western Palm Warblers that hit Net 20.



Our new visitor, Conner, got to record and release our new Western Palm Warbler.



Temperatures are expected to increase this week. More so tham usual.Who knows what will arrive and stick around. We shall see.
