I received this yesteday from Cornell Lab of Ornithology in my email and it’s fun. You can do it over and over and over again if you would like.

Cool! I had a summer tanager my first time through. Now to go look them up and see if the colors are described as I saw them. I called it an orange, olive and grey bird. But it was almost red and almost yellow, like a goldfinch in the winter yellow, not their bright yellow sexy-times yellow.

P.S. If you go to the website, click on the GSB Falcon site at the top of the page. There is a GREAT 20 min. video showing the banding of their “kids” from last season.

I know we are falcon fans, but for those who are chomping at the bit for a new season to begin, I just checked in on the Decorah Bald Eagle nest and “someone” is home and sprucing things up for the new year.

Hmm. Interesting, but it didn't identify my bird correctly. The picture was obviously a Junco, but it told me at the end that it was an Eastern Wood Pee-wee. And the call was that of a pee-wee. p.s. from Kate St. John: Here's a screenshot of the mistake: Not Correct
