Belle Isle Bird Observatory - A New Chapter

Beginning on October 5, 2024, I started a new bird banding station on Belle Isle (a State Park) in the Detroit River. The plan is for this station to continue well into the future, with a mission that includes research, education, and participation by underserved communities. I have posted the results of the first fall season at this new station. Visit the Bird Banding Blog link above to view results and photo highlights.

September 2023 Bird Banding Results Posted

Bird banding results, highlights, and photos from Lake St. Clair Metropark, Macomb County, Michigan for the month of September have been posted to the Bird Banding Blog (link above). September is warbler month around here, and there were lots of them, as well as hummingbirds, flycatchers, vireos, thrushes, and even a few sparrows at the end. There were unusually early arrivals, unusually late lingerers, and some uncommon species that includes one species that has only been banded in the park once before.
