A busy banding day = dirty laundry


Used (aka. dirty) bird-bags
Starting off today it was easy to assume it would be a slow day with just a few birds in the first couple of net checks. Boy we're we wrong! Around 8:15 the birds graced us with their presence. A couple nets had 20+ birds in them. Highlights of the day were a belted kingfisher (released without a band) and a gray-cheeked thrush. Overall we rounded out the day with over 100 birds.

Luckily for us, the afternoon slowed down because it started raining!
