[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies- Chico Basin Ranch Banding Station Report- September 26, 2024

Well, I must say this is odd fall weather for the end of September. It does not look like any fall weather for the remainder of the banding season (October 4th). Despite the slow bird day, we managed to band the bandit Sharp-shinned Hawk that has been hanging around the station the last week or so. We also caught a Hatching-year male Broad-tailed Hummingbird in our nets. That seems a bit late; but then the weather is not exactly feeling like Autumn.

9 New banded birds

Wilson's Warbler- 3

Audubon's (Yellow-rumped) Warbler- 1

Oregon Junco- 1

Lazuli Bunting- 1

Hermit Thrush- 1

Red-shafted (Northern) Flicker- 1

Sharp-shinned Hawk (Hatching year Female)- 1

1 Recapture

Hermit Thrush- gained a little weight from its first banding date.

The banding station will be open tomorrow and Saturday from sunrise until @11:30 AM. Remember to go to the Aiken Audubon Society website for registering for birding access to the Ranch.
