Hey COBirders,
A very slow morning banding at Clear Spring Ranch today. After netting 30 birds yesterday - only 10 were captured today, and none before 8:30 , a drastic departure from normal, when I have pratically been done with new birds by 7:45 the last few weeks!
Only highlight for the day - a Hatch Year Female White-throated Sparrow (F by the very short wing length, HY by the brown eye, and plumage)
I only get about one of these per year at CSR. But this was my 4th Zonotrichia this week - along with the Golden crowned, and Gambel’s and Mountain White-crowns. Pretty cool!
Oh, well, we’ll see what tomorrow brings in - it was a definite Departure Day today!
Happy Migration,
Steve Brown
