Jill and I hiked the refuge looking for new nests.
New Nest in a doug-fir on the N end of Miller Butte. A little too young for banding.
New Nest in a shed by the N end of Miller Butte, 2 young out of the nest.
New RTHA nest up on miller butte in a spruce on the NW corner.
3 UNK nests (all likely CORA) up on the West side and in the main top drainage. Climbed 2, both CORA. The one in the Drainage may have been used this year.
Checked the NER Flats nest. Needs a week.
Walked the creek by the Mc Bride Shed. Found a new Nest in a POAN just west of the shed. Female brooding.
Checked two historical areas up the Drainage NE of the McBride Shed. NEW NEST (Hilltop) in a SA Fir. I heard very young chicks.
NEW NEST (Indian View). Dead chick under nest. 3 in the nest. Banded.
New UNK nest on the creek in a POAN east from the shed. Likely a RTHA.
