Well, Lloyd finaly got lucky last night - he had 5 NSWO's
in 4 hours of open nets at Jug Bay Wetlands Sanctuary.

That brings the season total to 11 so far.  Not bad, when
you consider last season there were a total of only 4. 
(And Lloyd had none of them).

Yesterday was a good passerine banding day, as well, with
98 birds in the nets.  Nothing overly exciting, with many
WTSP's and AMGO's.  Got 12 Juncos - first day so far with
more than one or two.  Got another Yellow Palm.

One good birder (who is on MDO) had what she thought might
be a Golden Eagle flying over yesterday!!  This would be a
very exciting record for the sanctuary, of course.

Good birding,

Charlie
