10.6.24 Sagawau Environmental Learning Center, Lemont, IL

On this sunny Sunday, we went to another bird banding at Sagawau Environmental Learning Center. There were some cool birds who got banded, like a Northern Cardinal, a House Wren, a pair of Ruby-crowned Kinglets, and a Mourning Dove! Did you know that Mourning Doves need a band made only for Mourning Doves? It's because their legs are wide and short. It was amazing to be at this banding again!
