Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Banding Report - Grand Valley Audubon Society, 10/11/19

[Vicki Morgan]

The last day of season started out cold, and we weren't able to open until it warmed up at 9:30.  This led us to catch only 2 new birds and 1 recapture.  This last day gives us a grand total for the season of 221 new birds of 30 species, as well as 11 birds that were banded in previous seasons.  

Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1

White-crowned Sparrow (Gambel's) 1

Hermit Thrush 1 recapture

If you want to visit the banding station in the future, please check with the Grand Valley Audubon Society for next year's banding dates!
