Method: Up to eight 9m mist nets are placed in perpendicular
sets in willow wetland habitat near the South Jetty of the
Columbia River. 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: I've said it before and I'll say it again, there's
nothing like a BUSHTIT flock to push up the numbers. The first
HERMIT THRUSH (C.g.guttatus type down from BC/Alaska) of the
year was captured this morning.
