Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Chatfield Banding Station, 4/25/24

[meredith]

A strangely slow day today - We caught 5 birds in the first hour (6:30-7:30), and then nothing until 11, when we caught 2 adult male Orange-crowned Warblers.  The Chickadees and Song Sparrows that had been so active yesterday were missing today.  The total for the day was only 5 new, 2 returns:

Orange-crowned Warbler 2

Spotted Towhee 1 new, 1 banded 2021

White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 1 new, 1 banded 2022

American Goldfinch 1

We are banding Tuesday through Sunday (closed Mondays) through May 31.  You can register to visit on the weekends through the Denver Audubon website.  (The first couple of weekends are sold out, so sign up now if you are interested!)
