Sunny and chilly. 32F @ 7am.
Office in am. Got the GPS and PTT locations all straighted out and caught up.
DC and I went to town and checked to see if Bickner was ready for banding. There were at least 3 chicks that needed a few more days.
Banded Mead nest. 4 chicks about perfect banding age. Added a pink wrap-around band above the usgs band to signify town birds. Neither ad banded. I looked hard for egg shells and found none. There was a bunch of dog/elk hair in the nest and it also had a lot of thick brown paper as nest lining (maybe from an old mail envelope). I stayed in the tree while DC banded and took blood.
