I love reading everyone's posts from their experience today...I'm thinking I should of taken a sick day *cough, cough*!  One of these days, I won't be consistent and I'll actually witness something  ::)

BirdLover:
Just call me BirdLiver  :-[

Kinderchick:
Wow! What can I say?! An extraordinary day at the McKenzie Seeds banding in Brandon! ;D I had never attended a live banding before and it was well worth the 2 hr. road trip! (Thanks for the invite and the ride, bccs!) ;D One of the best parts, for me, was TPC setting up her sight scope on the parkade roof across from McKenzie Seeds, where all of us "phanatics" were situated. What an amazing view of Hurrican & Zeus and the 4 chicks in the nestbox!(Thanks, TPC! ) And to hear all the squawking and watch all the swooping of mom & dad, they certainly made a valiant effort to protect their chicks and their territory! Sure was a good thing that Dan was wearing his protective gear, although I don't think he was struck!  :P It was also wonderful to meet some of the "phanatics" and to put a face to the Forum names, that I have come to know through posts on the Forum; bccs, Sami, BirdLover (not BirdLiver! ;)), Rose, Rapidcitymbfan, Jean & Fred (?), and of course, Dennis, Dr. Bob, TPC and Dan-the-Man! Can hardly wait to see Dennis's photos! After the banding, he did show us 2 of the most awesome photos while we eating lunch! I feel extremely priviledged to have been a part of this day and have the utmost respect for all those who work to protect endangered species of any kind!
