Sharp-shinned Hawks follow the migrating songbirds out of the Northwoods. The last week I have been doing a land office business, banding robins. This occupation is curious because between 12 June and 12 October I banded no robins—not even young birds of this relatively common summer resident. (OK, it did not help that I was traveling during most of July.) Since late October, I’ve ringed over 100. On 30 October, I discovered this young female in my net among the robins. I was pleased by this photograph, taken by Erika with her Pixel XL phone and developed with Topaz Lab Studio. This software, at least in a basic format, is free.
