"Gently average,"as David Holmes puts it, sums up the 1997 season very well for most sites. There were no complaintsabout the lack of birds or too many birds and nothing really remarkable in the way of species present or absent. The Canadian Maritimesexperienced one of the driest summer/ fall seasonson record,yet farther downthe coast, Appledore Island rarely saw the sun. St. Andrew's totals show a good early warbler migrationbut a lackof late migrantsparrows and kingletsstopping in the area. Results from the Canadian offshore islandsindicate the opposite,with the highestnum- bers in late October.VINS was happyto see that species numbers reboundedto more normal lev- els in 1997, whileAppledore Island showed no sig- nificanthighs or lows.Block Island noted a lack of thrushes and creepers but White-throat numbers were up. Island Beach banded more birds than 1996 but fewer of their "bread-&-butter"migrants. Tables1 & 2 presentthe summaryresults for each site.
