Simon's Back

Yesterday we woke up to many more birds. Sparrows we had: Swamp, Fox, White-throated, White-crowned, Lincoln's, Savannah, Golden-crowned. We caught a Rock Wren, some sparrows, a Say's Phoebe, a Robin, and some others. Looks foggy out right now.

This Say's was first banded here on the Island in 2007 (by MDD)!

  2. That is the best BUOW picture ever- reminds me of something out of Lord of the Rings.

  3. Just love the burrowing owl roost! So how many mice ARE there, Sam? I read the article that Kanner posted, but I want to hear (or see) the situation from you.
