First winter season banding

First banding session for winter 2011 was slow but then I only had three nets up. Focus for the morning was birds coming to the bird feeders. The two White-throated Sparrows caught were both recaptures from February 2011. Always good to find migrants returning. Then there were three HY Brown-headed Nuthatches first caught in September this year. I believe the three birds are siblings. I frequently find them in each others' company.
