[CT Birds] Birdcraft Banding this week

[Kathy Van Der Aue]

We began our spring banding season at Birdcraft Museum and Sanctuary this 
week.  We banded sanctuary residents; (species) downy woodpecker (with brood 
patch beginning), northern cardinal, tufted titmouse, song sparrow, 
white-throated sparrow and migrants: golden-crowned kinglet and eastern 
phoebe.  We banded 11 phoebes over the two days.
