Chatfield Banding Station, Bird Conservancy of the Rockies 5-29-26

[Meredith McBurney]

Another day when the birds were out and about early and then took a nap as it heated up.  Probably our warmest day this season.  Only banded 17 birds, but caught another 15 that we had already caught this season, so we had plenty of birds for our visitor groups.

Here are the 17 new:

Western Wood-pewee 3
Western Flycatcher 3
Least Flycatcher 1
Warbling Vireo, Western by measurements 1

Swainson's Thrush 1
Gray Catbird 1
Yellow Warbler 2
American Redstart 1
Common Yellowthroat 1
Wilson's Warbler 2
Lincoln's Sparrow 1

Two more days!
