[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Banding Report, September 29

Fall seems to be here, as the sparrows take over from the warblers.  Today's highlights included a very cute Brown Creeper (not rare, certainly, but not often caught) and a very handsome Fox Sparrow.  We sometimes forget the wide range of size, body and bill shape among passerine species!  Here's the breakdown of today's 52 new birds:

Hammond's Flycatcher 1

Brown Creeper 1

Ruby-crowned Kinglet 2

Hermit Thrush 3

Gray Catbird 1

Orange-crowned Warbler 2
