Indian Peafowl - Pavo cristatus
Blue-crowned Motmot - Momotus momota
Today was also exciting because I was able to create study skins of the pair of Dark-eyed Juncos I brought into the prep lab exactly one month ago. Hundreds of birds have come in this fall and clogged up the study skin production line, but I was finally able to work on the ones I found. It was very satisfying to complete the entire process myself. (being the one to actually find the birds, and then be able to prepare them before being catalogued into the Field Museum's collections)
Bird count for the day:
2 Dark-eyed Juncos - Junco hyemalis
Rusty Blackbird - Euphagus carolinus
