Abstract

The Northern Waterthrush (Seiurus noveboracensis) is an uncommon but regular visitor to Wyoming during migration and has been documented across much of the state (Dorn and Dorn 1999; Luce et al. 1999). It is suspected to breed at least occasionally in Teton County in northwestern Wyoming (Dorn and Dorn 1999; Luce et al. 1999).

In southeastern Wyoming, 20 miles west of the city of Laramie along the Little Laramie River, 11 individuals were captured during three seasons of bird banding for a MAPS (Monitoring Avian Productivity and Survivorship) study.
