RMBO Barr Banding Station Update, 9/2/13

[Meredith]

What a difference a day – and 15 degrees – makes.  Back to hot weather and fewer birds.  20 new today, plus caught again 13 of the many that we banded yesterday:

 

Western Wood-pewee 2

Red-eyed Vireo                1 (an unusual bird for us, but the 2^nd this year.)

House Wren       4

Yellow Warbler 2

MacGillivray’s Warbler   1

Common Yellowthroat  3

Wilson’s Warbler              7

 

Open Tues-Thurs, then closed Fri.  Sat is Barr Lake’s Fall Birding Festival, with a variety of fun activities and booths at the Nature Center, plus bird hikes and of course banding.  Open Sun, closed Mon.
