DanSanDiego and I were out in the field the other day and had a nice flock of bandtails around us. There were a dozen in this tree and another dozen or so in another tree. Probably the most I've seen in this particular spot in a couple years. For the life of me, I can't figure these birds out though.. some years they appear and stay here through the season (which is when I have a good shoot), yet other years like last season, they show up early and disappear. Hoping they stick around through the winter this year. I know numbers have been down.
