After our first 9 days of banding at Whigg Meadow, Cherokee National Forest,
Monroe Co, TN (Sept 3-11) we have banded 300 birds of 32 species.
This is a relatively low capture rate for this site and I suspect the bulk
of migrants are yet to pass through.  Of interest are a number of returns of
birds banded at this location in previous years.  Two Tennessee Warblers, 1
Dark-eyed Junco, and 1Black-capped Chickadee ( bcch banded in 2000).  We
banded our first Northern Parula in our 8 years at this site and only our
2nd Kentucky Warbler.  Other highlights include a Wilson's Warbler, and 2
Golden-winged Warbler.  Weather permitting, banding will be conducted daily
through Sept, 24.
