[cobirds] CSR, El Paso Co., Sat.

Hey COBirders,

I had a pretty good day banding at Clear Spring Ranch, Saturday. While it was cloudy, cold, and breezy until 10:00, some birds were active early. 18 birds banded, and three recaps from this week, mostly before 8:30. Including:

2 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers (4 this week)
8 Yellow-rumped Warblers in one net, 5 Audubon's and 3 Myrtles. (I only usually catch 2-3 per year because they stay so high, so this was a surprise.)
5 Orange-crowned Warblers, 3 orestera ssp, and 2 celata ssp
Virginia's Warbler and Com Yellowthroat recaps from yesterday
Lincoln's (new) and Song (recap) Sparrows, Spotted Towhee (F).

Plus saw the first swallow of the season, a N Rough-winged, and the first Black-headed Grosbeak (M).

Bird Cast predicts a High migration rate tonight, so we'll see if that translates to some new birds.

Have a birdy weekend,
Steve Brown
