The snow storm passed and the banding station resumed operation today. The snow storm left frozen mist nets in its wake; due to time constraints we only had time to thaw and open nine nets. This was one of the few times it took longer to open nets than close them!
American Tree Sparrows and Varied Thrush were new migrants heard singing throughout our morning. Despite the improvement in weather and the increasing bird activity all around us, captures were low today. We only captured one bird, a Boreal Chickadee.
