[cobirds] Chico Basin Ranch Banding Station Report- Bird Conservancy of the Rockies-5/4/2025

I was able to get in a full morning of banding. It threatened rain all around the banding station but no rain just a couple sprinkles. Double digits were banded including seven species. The White-eyed Vireo was still around singing. Still not many birds around the station. Construction noise picks up @9 AM but it would be hard to differentiate from low number of birds in the area and no additional capture after 9 AM. No sightings of the owls today. I don't imagine they are around when it is so noisy there by the olive grove.

10 New Banded Birds

Audubon's (Yellow-rumped) Warbler-1

Myrtle (Yellow-rumped) Warbler-1

Orange-crowned Warbler-2

MacGillivray's Warbler-1

Northern House Wren-2

Hermit Thrush-2

Spotted Towhee-1

No recaptures

The banding station will be open weather permitting tomorrow from sunrise until @11:00 AM. Stop by and share your sightings. The Construction crew will be working near the banding station through Thursday this week.

Have a good day,
