Chico Basin Ranch- Bird Conservancy of the Rockies-9/10/2025

[Chicobander]

Well, not much bird action on the Ranch at the banding station today. The Colorado Land Board trustees/commissioners came to tour the ranch. Their last stop was the banding station. Fortunately, we had a bird to demonstrate the banding process. It was a Magnolia Warbler. It was the highlight of their morning. We managed to squeak out double digits today but just barely.
