[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Chico Banding Station-May 15, 2023

Has anyone NOT seen a Swainson's Thrush today?!!! They have moved into the ranch area today in large numbers. We captured 22 Species including these two new species for the season: Hooded Warbler and Veery. I would imagine it took some patience for birders to stop and look at the thrushes today to find a Veery. We caught a Yellow Warbler and another Bullock's Oriole that was not banded this year. I will share the original banding date and age when it becomes available.
