Just to clarify, I have not banded at Lake St. Clair Metropark since fall
of 2023, long before the Bald Eagle nest showed up. My statement was that
IF we had been allowed to continue our research into 2025, it MIGHT have
been curtailed anyway because of this nest.
So, the only banding I am doing now is winter banding (Oct-Mar) at the
Inkster Banding Station, on Belle Isle in spring and fall migration,
hummingbird banding across southern Michigan in summer and fall, and winter
hummingbird banding (Sep-Jan) in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.
