Re: RBA Indigo Bunting
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýThanks Vero and Dan! ? Yeah, what a spectacular bird eh? They hybridize with Lazuli Bunting where their ranges overlap and we obviously have breeding LAZB in the park ¨C having said that it¡¯s still way outside of range as you guys know. As for banded species we were stuck on 99 for the longest time and finally got species 100 and were expecting it to be something really amazing¡.it was an Eurasian Collared Dove! :o) ? Happy birding! ? Derek ? -----Original Message----- ? Derek¡ wow! Nice! I didn¡¯t realize you had one before. ? How many species have you now banded at Colony Farm? ?
