We had one of our slowest days of the season at Chico today. With low clouds and cool, damp conditions to start, things were pretty quiet. The sun burned off the clouds for the last hour or so, and I thought that would bring more birds, but that was not to be. Just not much activity near the nets today.
-- We ended up banding 8 birds of 8 species:
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1
Wilson's Warbler 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 1
Chipping Sparrow 1
Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon/intergrade 1
Song Sparrow 1
Hermit Thrush 1
White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 1
We band 6 days a week at Chico Basin, closed Sundays. Visitors are welcome at our banding stations. Registration is required for groups. For more information and hours of operation, visit birdconservancy.org/birdbanding .
For the remainder of the week, we'll be opening nets at 7:00 AM and closing at noon, weather permitting. Come visit!
