[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies- Chico Basin Banding Station 8/28/2023

Today was clearing Net lanes and setting up the mist nets. Many thanks to Ranchlands personnel for helping mow the tall plants that grew over the summer! We operated the nets for a couple hours. Nine bird species were banded and a highlight was a hatching-year male Rufous Hummingbird. He was happy to be released near the banding table as he began guarding the hummingbird feeder. I am sure he would have found it eventually.
