1st raptor OTS and a banded Osprey

Today we caught the first raptor of the season!!! It was a HY male coop. And my very first band to be used. We went to Mag. site to secure the station for the coming of Earl. While we were there we had lunch and watched a hand full of raptors flying around - harriers, coops, a jev. bald eagle, ospreys, and a distant redtail. I photographed the eagle and a near flyby osprey. The osprey had a band!!!! to cool! I'll post photo when I get a chance.
