Hilton Pond Center


Through our Web sites for Hilton Pond Center and "Operation RubyThroat:
The Hummingbird Project," we got many reports in 2007 of white
hummingbirds around the country. For a discussion of albinism and
leucism in hummers--as well as a gallery of some of the amazing images
we received--please visit our "This Week at Hilton Pond" photo essay
for 22-31 Oct 2007 at
http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek071022.html

As always we include a tally of birds banded and recaptured during the
period, plus some miscellaneous nature notes and a mug shot of a
Cooper's Hawk that showed up in our nets. There's also a long comment
on the explosion of Northern Cardinals that has appeared this fall at
Hilton Pond.

Registration deadlines for our 2008 hummingbird banding trips to
Costa Rica are approaching; there are still some spaces available if
you'd care to miss the cold, wet winter that will surely strike most
of the U.S. come January and February. :-)
