[cobirds] Chico Basin Ranch Banding Report - Week 1

Hey all,

The Bird Conservancy of the Rockies banding Station at Chico Basin Ranch has wrapped up its first week of banding and we've had some exciting captures. The cold front early in the week brought some good birds, but lately, with the warm weather, things have generally tapered off later in the day.

Through 7 days of banding, we've banded 294 individuals of 40 species.

Highlights: Calliope Hummingbird (1), Red-eyed Vireo (2), Ovenbird (3), Bewick's Wren (1), Nashville Warbler (1), and Virginia's Warbler (1).

The station runs Monday through Saturday, 6:30 am till 12 noon. We love to share our birds with the public so feel free to come by. Please make sure to check in at the Ranch office before visiting the station. Lastly, be aware that the Ranch uses the station as an educational opportunity for a variety of school groups or other interested organizations so after 9 am the station may be filled with wide-eyed youngsters.

Good birding,
Aaron Yappert
Volunteer Bander
