21 April 2001

Method: Up to eight 9m mist nets are placed in mixed Oregon
Crabapple/Twinberry/Spruce along the the upper Neawanna River,
Seaside, Clatsop Co. OR. Captured birds are measured, ringed
with USBBL numbered metal bands and released. Data on time of
capture and side of net captured are also recorded to gain
an understanding of movements through the area.

Notes: The HERMIT THRUSHES captured today were small gray type,
(photos will follow). Both repatured RUFOUS HUMMINGBIRDS were
males. We saw a banded HAIRY WOODPECKER. Since only one has
been banded in the area we assume it was the bird banded
4-24-1999.
