The George Walker House is host site for The Hummingbird Monitoring Network. Jackie has just completed entering the 2006 data, and Susan is compiling and end of year report. I will get the 2007 site dates and 2006 summary up shortly. I will also add pictures of the "the process" of trapping, banding, recording data, and releasing the hummingbirds. The charts below are banding data only and are not an accurate representation of species abundance. Seems the Broadtails always come in after banding.
2008 Banding Dates
Sunday, every other week, for 5 hours, starting at Sunrise.
