[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies- Chico Basin Ranch Banding Station

Day 2 was a slower day than our first day of banding yesterday. However, it produced some nice species : Vesper Sparrow and and adult Yellow-breasted Chat. A couple recaptures from yesterday and slower numbers suggest that there was not much migration over night here. Eleven bird species captured today.

Wilson's Warbler-11
MacGillivray's Warbler-2
Western Wood-Pewee -5
Western Flycatcher -2

The Chico Basin Ranch Banding Station is operated Monday - Saturday through September 29th. Depending on the weather, banding will conclude around 11:30 AM. Come visit the Ranch to see what is migrating through the area and stop by the banding station.
