[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Chico Basin Ranch Banding Report 9/4

Our numbers remained low today with only 26 captures, though it was nice to interact with some birders who stopped by the station and I was able to talk to them about the process! We caught two new species for the season: a Least Flycatcher and a Hermit Thrush! This morning I was able to hear a Great Horned Owl nearby the station, though we did not catch it ): Also managed to see a Black-chinned hummingbird hovering around the nets. It was so great getting to meet everyone today! 

Chico's captures for 9/4:

Wilson's Warbler 10 

Dusky Flycatcher 2

Least Flycatcher 1

MacGillivray's Warbler 3

Chipping Sparrow 1

Hermit Thrush 1

Swainson's Thrush 1

American Robin 1

Recaptures: 

Wilson's Warbler 1

We are open 6 days a week at Chico Basin Ranch (closed Sunday), usually returning from the first net run around 7am and staying open until about 11:30am, weather permitting. Tomorrow is my day off. I plan on looking out for American Avocets and some other lifers, but I will be back and running the station on Monday. Thanks and stay birdy
