Another quiet day at the banding station. However, you never know what species show up. We banded a Black-and-White Warbler (Hatching year male) which was the first of the year. All the recaptures today were over 1.3grams or more since their initial banding. A Northern House Wren banded last fall was captured today. Good to see returning birds surviving.

*3 Recaptures- banded this season and captured again* Brown Thrasher Swainson's Thrush- 2
