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

Notes: We had very nice weather today and caught a quite a few birds
most notable was a very clear movement of ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLERS,
many of theme of the gray interior _orestera_ form.  We also had a
pulse of LINCOLN'S SPARROWS, always a treat, and several the larger,
gray-form _calendula_ type RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETS
