Black-throated Gray

Yesterday I banded at Redwood Creek with Amanda. We caught 14 birds, with 10 species, including two Lincoln's Sparrows, the first and possibly only Black-throated Gray Warbler of the year and a Western Scrub Jay, a common bird, but not often caught.

Hatch year female






This bird was at least ten years old (it was already banded, so we could look this up)
