Hilton Pond 09/22/01 (Foreign Goldfinch)




HI . . .

As we toil long and hard at catching birds, sometimes we're surprised 
to trap a bird that wasn't banded by staff at Hilton Pond Center for 
Piedmont Natural History. That's what happened with a female American 
Goldfinch during the week of 22-30 September 2001. Where could she 
have been from?

For details please visit "This Week at Hilton Pond" at 
http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek010922.html . This is  a direct 
link but please feel free to browse the rest of the Web site.  :-)

As usual, there are weekly totals for banded and recaptured birds, 
including mug shots of a young male Rose-breasted Grosbeak and only 
the fourth Nashville Warbler ever banded at the Center.


Peace, and Happy Nature Watching,

BILL
