You might try contacting your local Audubon society. They can tell you the name of certified bird banders in your area. A local bander uses my yard to catch and band hummingbirds. I have helped with the bandings. The process for catcing birds has evolved to an exacting science. It is very safe for the birds captured. Your local bander may let you go along for a banding trip. Lots of info is gathered. Taking part is very interesting.
