[cobirds] Re: Bird Conservancy Banding Report - Chico Basin Ranch, 9/12/19

Quick correction on the date from this morning's update: obviously today is September 13th, not the 12th. My apologies.

We had a fairly 'regular' day of banding at Chico this morning. No first-record captures this time (or even first of season species), just a steady stream of mostly Wilson's Warblers after a slow start. About 2/3 of the Wilson's Warblers we banded today were hatch-year females.  

Our totals from the day were 37 newly-banded birds of 12 species: 

Wilson's Warbler 23

Dark-eyed Junco 1 (probably an Oregon Junco-type intergrade 

Orange-crowned Warbler 2

Warbling Vireo 1

Yellow Warbler 1

Lincoln's Sparrow 1

Hermit Thrush 1

Swainson's Thrush 1

Yellow-breasted Chat 1

Green-tailed Towhee 1

Gray Catbird 1

Brown Thrasher 3

 

We are open 6 days a week, closed on Sundays. Tomorrow we'll be opening nets at 6:40 AM and closing at 11:40 AM, with a potentially earlier close if it's hot or breezy. Visitors are welcome!
