Chatfield Banding Station - Bird Conservancy of the Rockies 5/2/25

[meredith]

We got drizzled out yesterday, but back in business this morning.  Only banded 8 birds, but recaptured another 8 banded in previous days so that our many groups this morning all saw a nice selection of year-round residents and early migrants.  Our 8 new birds were:

Hermit Thrush 1

Common Yellowthroat 1

Wilson's Warbler 1

Brown-headed Cowbird 1

American Goldfinch 4

We are banding Tuesday through Sunday (closed Mondays) through May 31, weather permitting.  There are opportunities for the public to visit on weekends and occasional weekdays through the Denver Audubon website.  (Some days are already sold out, so sign up now if you are interested!)
