Hello Everyone,
This is my seventh report of the 2019 banding
season, covering the weekend of October
12th, 2019.
THIS SEASON MARKS OUR 50th CONSECUTIVE YEAR OF
TRAPPING HAWKS AT THE MATTSON FARM!!!
Saturday, October 12th
High winds from the South, cold temperatures,
rain, sleet, and snow were predicted for the entire weekend of October 12th.
So, not wanting to sit in a cold, wet blind with nothing to look at, we decided
to call off the banding operations for this weekend. We contacted the groups
that were scheduled to come up and told them not to come. I sure hope
we get better weather next weekend!

| The North Shore was angry this weekend, so we stayed home! |
