8 Banded! Monday, August 27, 2007

The first bird of the season was a HY F COHA. Martin Muller and Pat Little called in with the report. The weather was very pleasant, clear with some smoke from the Stehekin fire to the NE. The captures were nicely spread out over the day.

Heartbreak of the day story: Adult RTHA came in from behind, over the pigeon, straight through the dho-gazza and on into the sunset.

Raptors banded:

2 HY female COHA
1 HY female SSHA
1 HY male SSHA
2 HY male AMKE
1 AHY male AMKE
1 HY RTHA
