Fog continues.  We are keeping our spirits high through participation in extracurricular activities. Jumping jacks, hackey sack, Tai-Chi, and canoeing are keeping us entertained during the slow periods.  The Giants lost again, which is depressing.  Adam caught and banded 2011's last Black Oystercatcher chick.  Also, a few birds have been stuck on the Island since our migrant wave a few days ago, and I took some pictures of them.

This Bobolink has been hanging out in an area known as the Cabbage Patch.  I reckon this patch will host some remarkable birds this fall, and this BOBO will pale in comparison.
