This morning band numbers 16 and 17 were visible, but I agree, let's wait for the official word from RRP.
Elaine brought one all-black bird for early breakfast and fed the eyases.  A short while later, she brought another cedar wax wing and ate it herself, the little ones were plenty full already.
Yesterday, a nice closeup of wild columbine in bloom at GSB,

Amy posted the official numbers and names for GSB, see the Home page.  Also very helpful info about the banding rules and procedures.  She didn't explain how they determine the sex of the eyases at banding time; is it just size, weight, appearance, or something more scientific like a blood test? Good news that the youngsters are free of external parasites.
