[cobirds] Bird Conservancy Banding Report - Chatfield Station, 5/17/17

Catbirds led the way today - We "only" banded 15, but it seems like more when they are big, noisy, high-personality birds!  A total new of 34, with 2 banded prior years:

Western Wood-pewee (FOS) 1
Dusky Flycatcher 1
House Wren 1
Gray Catbird 15
Yellow Warbler 4 new, 2 banded in 2016
Northern Waterthrush 1
MacGillivray's Warbler 1
Common Yellowthroat 3
Wilson's Warbler 1
Yellow-breasted Chat 3
Lincoln's Sparrow 2
White-crowned Sparrow, Mountain 1

The banding station runs daily, weather permitting, through June 1 (except Memorial Day), from 7:00 to approximately 11:30. There have been some changes in WEEKEND visiting policies - If you are planning a weekend visit, I strongly encourage you to go to Denveraudubon.org to get more information and guarantee your spot by PRE-REGISTERING. Weekdays are the same as in the past - school groups arrive between 9:30 and 10; early weekday mornings are the best time for a peaceful visit with us and the birds!
