[cobirds] Chico Basin Ranch- Bird Conservancy of the Rockies-9/5/2025

A cold front sure came through but the birds did not stopover at the banding station. I heard the Wilson's Warblers were hanging out at HQ pond area. Despite our low numbers we had a prize bird in my opinion: Townsend's Solitaire. I think they are very beautiful or handsome- since they are not sexually dimorphic. The other new species captured this season was a House Finch. 

14 New Banded Birds

Wilson's Warbler- 5

Western Wood-Pewee- 2

Northern House Wren- 1

Hoping for a better day tomorrow at the banding station. we will be open @ sunrise until around noon. Stop by and share your sightings with us. If wanting to bird or visit the ranch, please sign up on the Aiken Audubon website. www.aikenaudubon.com
