11 Oct: Today RRBO put its 25,000th band on a bird, a White-throated Sparrow! Read more here. It was one of 16 species banded today, including several warbler species: American Redstart, Yellow-rumped Warbler, Black-throated Blue Warbler, Nashville Warbler, and Orange-crowned Warbler. The first Yellow-bellied Sapsucker of the season was seen.
10 Oct: A Black-and-white Warbler was seen today, along with Blackpoll Warblers, Swainson's Thrush (one also banded), and Orange-crowned Warblers. Chimney Swifts are still coming through in small numbers.
6 Oct: A late Blue-winged Warbler was banded today. Tennesee Warblers are still moving through, but we haven't seen our peak of sparrows or Hermit Thrushes yet.
