Another night of bird migration tonight. Last night, we caught our 1st Northern Saw-whet Owl of the season! Many songbirds migrate at night in part to avoid predators, but Saw-whets will snack on kinglets while migrating. #birds #fall #migration #LightsOutForBirds All banding conducted under permit
On this date I picked out the 2nd Chestnut-Eared Bunting for the UK. With the birds on offer there now, 10 euro says one of these is next on the menu. #birds #birding #rarebirdsuk
