We did not have many birds at Labor Day (1 May 2009)

Today is labor day. However it is officially an off day here in Turkey, we kept ringing at Aras Station :-) Today the weather was a little cloudy and partially rainy in the afternoon. We ringed 30 birds out of 13 species. We ringed the first garden warbler of the season this year.

Today's birds are:

Bluethroat
Blackcap
Willow warbler
Swallow
Chiffchaff
Thrush nightingale
Redstart
Cetti's warbler
