[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Chatfield Banding Station Fall week 2 of 3

This past week we ran the Chatfield banding station on Tues, Thurs, and Saturday. Across those three days, we banded 36 birds of 11 species, and also had 8 recaptures. In this past week, common local nesters such as the Gray Catbirds, Yellow Warblers and Yellow-breasted Chats have all but left. Wilson's Warblers were our most commonly banded bird, though they seemed to be thinning out by the end of the week. Here are our totals across the three days this past week:

Dusky Flycatcher - 2

Western Wood-pewee - 1

Swainson's Thrush - 1

Black-capped Chickadee - 4 new, 4 recaps

Northern House Wren - 3 new, 2 recaps

Song Sparrow - 3

Spotted Towhee - 4 new, 1 recap

Orange-crowned Warbler - 2

Common Yellowthroat - 1

Wilson's Warbler - 15 

Yellow-breasted Chat - 1 recap

This coming week we'll be running the station on Tues (weather permitting), Thurs, and Sat. We are hosting public and school group visitors similar to our spring season, with one public group timeslot on weekdays (7am) and three timeslots on weekends (7:30, 8:30, 9:30). I believe all the public visitor timeslots are filled for this final week of the short season, but in case of cancellations you can join a waitlist through Denver Audubon's event calendar here.
