2nd Official Banding Day

Day 2 of our new Lake Lotus banding project. Not a ton of birds around but we did make it in time to start grabbing some migrants for the Fall season. Day 1 was on the 14th but it was kind of a trial run. Net positions are still being tested.

Always nice to see a male Black-throated Blue Warbler.



In the same net, but a little later, we captured another migrant: an Ovenbird.



I was hoping for some thrushes in this new area and, sure enough, we captured this Veery near the edge of the woods.



Other birds were captured bringing in a nice variety to the day. Could make for an interesting location.
