Today we caught 14 raptors. This is our best day yet.
The species were Kestrel, Merlin, Sharp-shinned, Copper, and Red-tailed.
Total for the project are on Cape May Raptor Banding Project website - http://capemayraptors.org/
Mamdy caught her first merlin today in the mist net, a nice HY(Hatch Year) female. W got our first adult red-tail, SY(second Year). This red-tail had a very light tail, some white on the outer part of the tail and near the base. Mandy took a few photos of it.
I'm off to bed, 4:45am comes early.
