They were only out of the nest for about 15 min total. I watched the whole thing. Better to get them banded and checked out. Kathy Clark is a fantastic biologist.

I watched the whole video. I thought the banding was done very quickly and efficiently. The only part I didn't like was watching them climb up to that nest. No good branches for climbing ... and when he got to the top that front part of the nest looked like it was ready to crumble with every little bump. Darn thing is on a bad slant as it is. It's too bad they couldn't add a few supports under there in the off season.

Kathy might shore it up in the fall, but they did that up here and the birds never returned. They built a new nest on the opposite side of the river!!
