[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Chatfield Banding Station, 5/5/24

Sunday was a lot like Saturday - cloudy and cool most of the morning, with a similar mix of species. Banded 18 new birds, caught 3 returns (banded here in prior years), and another 7 recaps (birds caught previously this season).  Here's the breakdown of the 21 new this season birds:

Black-capped Chickadee 1 banded 2023

House Wren 5 new, 1 banded 2022

Orange-crowned Warbler 1

Yellow Warbler 1 new, 1 banded 2023

Common Yellowthroat 2

Spotted Towhee 2

Song Sparrow 2

Lincoln's Sparrow 1

White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 1

White-crowned Sparrow, Mountain 1

Red-winged Blackbird 2

Happy that today is our day off - this wind would prevent us from opening!  Back out tomorrow. 

We are banding Tuesday through Sunday (closed Mondays) through May 31, weather permitting.  You can register to visit on the weekends through the Denver Audubon website.  (Some times/days are sold out, so sign up now if you are interested!)
