[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Banding Report, 10/23/24

This is a belated report on our final day of banding for 2024 (after sleep, eat, all-staff meeting.....)  

We got pleasant weather for our last day.  Not a lot of birds, which is kinda okay........made us feel like it was time to end our migration monitoring for the season!  

Here are the final 17 new birds of the season (there were also 8 recaps):

American Tree Sparrow 1
Song Sparrow 1
White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 12
Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 3

Thanks to the wonderful volunteers (23 in all, ranging from 2 who were new this season to 1 with over 20 years experience) who make it possible for us to run a banding station 6 days a week for 9 weeks, while also welcoming daily individual visitors as well as school groups.

Hope to have time very soon to get data computerized and be able to provide some feedback on this year's experience.

Also, thanks to all of you for your comments, questions, etc.  Back in the spring at Chatfield!

Meredith
