[cobirds] Bird Conservancy Banding Report - Barr Lake Update, 9/14/19

Only 22 new birds today, but almost as many recaptures - 21 birds banded over the past few days that we caught again. Not a lot of variety, mostly lots of Wilson's.  Here's the breakdown (of the new birds):

House Wren 3
Gray Catbird 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 1
Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 1
Wilson's Warbler 13
Green-tailed Towhee 3

We are open 6 days per week, Tuesday-Sunday, weather permitting, through October 13. We are opening nets at 6:40 and should have birds back at the station by 7:20. We will close nets most days at 11:40, although we are closing earlier as needed due to the heat. School groups arrive most weekdays at about 9:30. The best time to visit (fewest people, most birds) is before 9:30 weekdays and Sundays. 
 
Come visit!
