Melissa's Adventures

Welcome!

I am spending this summer in Nome, Alaska, banding songbirds. Above is an arctic warbler. We are collecting samples from them to be tested for bird flu.
Above is a bluethroat. He is gorgeous. He spends the winter in Asia.

Here, Dave DeSante holds a yellow wagtail, another species that we are really interested in.
