Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Lake Banding Station 9/13/25

[Meredith McBurney]

Caught only 8 new birds today, all Wilson's Warblers.  Two of them were caught twice.  It was as though a tiny flock of WIWAs had flown in and nothing else.  And no hints of other activity from birds calling or moving about; it was very quiet.

We will be out again tomorrow, to continue documenting this disappointing season at Barr.

Come visit!  Our visitor hours: Weekends we are running 3 sessions, at 8, 9, and 10 a.m.  Most weekdays (Tues through Fri) there is a 7:30 to 8:30 session.   These are small group sessions (15 or fewer visitors), and a great way to learn more about the species that move through the front range in the fall.  There is a $7 fee and registration is required - click here to register.
