"Quiet day" - Friday, August 31, 2007

In the past 6 banded would be considered a pretty good day. But all things are relative, and this year 6 banded qualifies as "quiet". Jim Shiflet was on the ridge with Dennis Ryan and Cindy Willis.

We're still waiting for these first's of the season! - adult Red tail hawk, Northern Goshawk, and Prairie or Peregrine falcon

Raptors banded:

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