During the fall of 2012, Los Alamos National Security, LLC (LANS) biologists completed the 3rd year of monitoring fall migration passerines (songbirds) at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). Songbirds were captured at a mist-netting station located in a large wetland/riparian complex in Technical Area (TA)-36 on the north side of Pajarito Road in Los Alamos County. Captured birds were identified, measured, and banded with a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) migratory bird band. Banding operations took place between 7 August and 10 October 2012 with the completion of a total of ten mist-netting sessions. This project was conducted as part of implementation of the Biological Resources Management Plan (BRMP) and is in compliance with the 2006 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the USFWS and the Department of Energy (DOE)/National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and Executive Order 13186.
