First SY's this AM

Post by AllenH »

Had 3 SY's this morning. 1 Male and 2 Females. Not banded, all of the young birds at this site were banded last year. With South winds expecting more shortly. My adult numbers appear down slightly from last year. Nest building at a furious pace. Hawk attacks more frequent also.

Sounds things for you goin well, although migration has been erratic for many.
No Scout report from Mr. Perry, Viking, Honker Flats or Williams Sites yet.
Site in TRF /w about 25% of normal numbers!
We'll be "Eyes to the Sky" for those banded SY's :!:
