[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Banding Report, 9/24/22

A moderate number of birds made for a perfect Saturday - our visitors got a good chance to really see each species we caught, and to compare/contrast different sparrows and warblers.  Caught our third Vesper Sparrow (total of 5 in the previous 17 years), officially my favorite sparrow of the season.

Here's the breakdown of todays 42 new birds:

Western Wood-pewee 1

Rock Wren 1

Ruby-crowned Kinglet 2

Hermit Thrush 3

Orange-crowned Warbler 7
