As for all birders, the summer season is a fairly slow season for bird-banders. For most of us, the month of June is taken up with the Breeding Bird Surveys, and July-August is the hottest time of the year. I remember well one day in August when I set up my mist nets in a proven area – the total catch for 8 hours of effort was 0 birds.
