[cobirds] Chico Basin Ranch Banding Report, June 1, 2026-Bird Conservancy of the Rockies

Happy June! Migration is winding down; but there are still some flycatchers, Lincoln's Sparrows, and Swainson's Thrushes that are trickling through. All recaptures were breeding birds and maintained or lost a little weight from banding time. Breeding birds will be burning the energy they eat during nesting season.

12 New Banded Birds

Common Yellowthroat- 1

Western Wood-Pewee- 1

Willow Flycatcher-1

Alder Flycatcher- 1

Northern House Wren- 1

House Finch- 2

Lincoln's Sparrow- 1

Swainson's Thrush- 2

Northern Mockingbird- 1

Bullock's Oriole- 1

5 Recaptures

Western Wood-pewee- 1

Bullock's Oriole- 4

The Banding Station will be open tomorrow through Saturday from Sunrise until @ 11AM. Please register on the Aiken Audubon website if interested in visiting the ranch. www.aikenaudubon.com

Enjoy the Day,
