BANDING REPORT- Neawanna Wetland Preserve
04-25-2004

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: It was a bright warm morning. Oddly enough, most of our
captures were in the last hour of banding. Orestera-type ORANGE-
CROWNS are now out numbering Lutescens-type. There was also a
fairly obvious movement of LINCON'S SPARROWS.

A SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHER and a flock of LEAST SANDPIPERS spent
the first part of the morning on the adjacent pond and a WHIMBREL
flew over.

Half-a-bee, philosophically must ipso-facto half not-be.
But half the bee, has got to bee Vis-a-vis its entity...
d'you see?
But can a bee be said to be or not to be an entire bee
When half the bee is not a bee due to some ancient injury?
