BANDING REPORT- Neawanna Wetland Preserve
06-06-2007

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: Things appear to have slipped away from migrants and on to
the business of reproduction.  Most notable was a singing male ROSE-
BREASTED GROSBEAK which we got all too brief looks at through Steve
Warner's spotting scope.
