Hi all,
Just wanted to share some photos that I took last Thursday at the Refuge. We had a state bander, Alan Jackson come and band our martin fledglings! He ended up banding 130 in all, not a record, but better than last year. I brought two students with me and they had a blast! Mr. Jackson was an amazing teacher and let the kids band a few birds.
