It appears that spring migration is pretty much over. There is a few stragglers still around. The Prothonotary Warbler was viewed at Headquarters Willows this morning but was observed flying north around 11 AM. So maybe it will hang out on the ranch or it has better things to do? It was a beautiful morning at the banding station even if there was few birds around. Not even a lot of breeding bird singing happening today. The female Common Yellowthroat was not hanging around. She was a fat bird. She was still in migration mode. *4 New Banded Birds * Common Yellowthroat- 1 American Goldfinch- 1 House Finch- 2 Hatching year birds
*No Recaptures*
The banding station will be open tomorrow and Saturday from sunrise until @ 11AM. Saturday is the last day for the season. MANY THANKS to the volunteers putting in time to assist with the spring season. Thank you very much! If interested in visiting the ranch these next couple days, Please register on the Aiken Audubon Website www.aikenaudubon.com
Have a good day!
