BAND RECOVERY! A White-throated Sparrow was found on November 1 over 2700 km away in Arkansas. He was banded during our spring migration monitoring on May 18, 2022 and was recaptured in one of our MAPS sites on July 23 near the end of his breeding season. Unfortunately, he was found dead after being struck by a fire truck. This is only the second of 5,354 White-throated Sparrows we have banded to have been found by someone else.
