[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Chico Basin Ranch Daily Update 10/01/21

Today was my second to last day of work, and it was super bittersweet. My last brigade of elementary school kids came through and seemed to really enjoy their time here at the banding station. Thank you to everyone who has come to visit throughout the season and hopefully I see some of you tomorrow before I head out! 

Chico captures for 10/1: 
Wilson's Warbler 7
Orange-crowned Warbler 1
Song Sparrow 1
Hermit Thrush 1
Slate-colored Junco 2
Lincoln's Sparrow 3

We are open 6 days a week at Chico Basin Ranch (closed Sunday), usually returning from the first net run around 7am and staying open until about 11:30am, weather permitting. Thank you for your continued support! Tomorrow (Oct 2nd.) is the last day we will be banding and open to the public.

[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Lake Banding Report, 10/1/21

Today's list of captures felt like what we should be seeing on October 1 - Bigger birds, sparrows and other later migrants, plus a few resident species that we don't seem to catch until it is really fall.  For example, mid-morning, we had 2 Yellow-rumped Warblers, 2 White-breasted Nuthatches, and a Black-capped Chickadee (all in the same net) and a Flicker.  We are also recapturing more birds that we banded in recent weeks, like White-crowned Sparrows, that may be sticking around for the winter.  Here's the breakdown for the day:

Northern Flicker Intergrade 1
White-breasted Nuthatch 2 (male and female)
Hermit Thrush 2
Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 2
Green-tailed Towhee 1
Lincoln's Sparrow 2
White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 2
[Recaptures included 2 Black-capped Chickadees, 1 Gray Catbird, 2 Spotted Towhees, 1 Song Sparrow and 2 White-crowned Sparrows]

We are open 6 days a week, weather permitting through October 23.  Closed Mondays.  Click here to register to visit - we are offering one-hour slots (up to 12 visitors at a time); 7:30-8:30 most weekdays, and 8-9, 9-10, and 10-11 on weekends.  Come visit!

Re: [cobirds] Re: [nature-net] Sandhill Cranes west Longmont

Hi All, 

I had a perfect chevron of about 40 cranes heading south over North Boulder around 3 pm. It was great to hear the calls  high over Boulder.

I saw five cranes about 15 minutes ago, high over Louisville at about the Aquarius trailhead, spiraling up up and away to the southwest.  Too high and far to hear them over traffic if they were calling, and not 120, but I'll take it!  Thanks to the earlier posts, I was paying attention.

[cobirds] Re: [nature-net] Sandhill Cranes west Longmont

Perhaps the same flock passed just west of Superior about 1:10.  It's kind of funny that we might be tracking these birds more or less in real time across Boulder County!

[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Chico Basin Ranch Banding Update 9/30/21

Hey ya'll! Sorry I didn't post this last night but figured I would post before my banding day starts. Yesterday was our slowest day of the season, and just based on my short walk this morning, I think today is going to be more productive. Tomorrow is my last day of banding here at Chico, so if you'd like to chat with me or make birding arrangements, please come before 1PM tomorrow!

Chico captures for 9/30: 
Wilson's Warbler3
Orange-crowned Warbler 1
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 2
Hermit Thrush 1

We are open 6 days a week at Chico Basin Ranch (closed Sunday), usually returning from the first net run around 7am and staying open until about 11:30am, weather permitting. Thank you for your continued support! Oct 2nd is the last day of banding.
