PROTHONOTARY WARBLER
A Prothonotary Warbler, normally found in the swampy woods of the southeastern US during the summer, showed up at the Observation Pond on Oct. 20. It spent time between the New Mexico Olives on the west side of the pond and the New Mexico Privet along the trail. The banding team caught and banded it on Oct. 27. The banders re-trapped it on October 28 and surprisingly again on November 3!! It was still being seen on Nov. 4.
