Atlantic Flyway review: Region V

Of in the 15 participating banding stations in Region Park V in the autumn of 1983, only Baltimore's Leakin Park was new. Two others that were active but not reported in 1982 rejoined us in 1983. Four of the 15 stations are home operations, 2 are on Federal land, 2 in city parks, 2 at private schools, 2 at coastal concentration spots, 1 on a wildlife sanctuary, 1 in an abandoned orchard, and 1 in an impending real estate development. Coverage and catch characteristics of each station are summarized in Table 1 and in the pie charts that accompany the station reports. The habitats sampled vary so much among stations that species and even family composition are unique at each site.
