Alvaro Jaramillo, brilliant bird guide and proprietor of Alvaro’s Adventures , just tackled this thorny topic on the ABA Facebook page.

It was freedom from studies and classrooms, and the weather also made it possible to play baseball, video games, tag, and (in my case), study bird books and look for birds. It was the big break of the year but I didn’t look for as many birds then as I did during spring and fall migration.

The name and town of the owner were engraved on a metal tag. I’d released birds there. Not only did we convince the local head of PRH that DEC was horning in on his territory, we managed to drag the president of the nearby Fish and Game Club – who personally detested trapping – into the fray.
