Hi y'all,
This a.m. in Murrells Inlet (Georgetown Cty.) I banded an imm. male
Black-chinned and my first fem. Rufous. The Rufous has been around since
Oct. and had spurned me on two previous capture attempts. Third time's the
charm. ;-)
The BCHU was a way cool surprise, the third banded in SC (all 3 in
2001...Woohoo!)
This marks 3 hummer species banded in the host's yard since Nov. 2.
She says she's seen a "tiny little" hummer lately, too....I might go
pitch my tent in their yard.
Wonder what we'll find if there's ever a frost here?
Woohoo! I just luv this stuff....
;-)
