Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Banding Report 9/5/25

[Meredith McBurney]

We knew there would be a change in weather today, but it was colder and windier than expected.   A slower day, but a greater diversity of species. 16 new birds captured:

Western Wood-pewee 1

Red-eyed Vireo 1 (FOS)

Orange-crowned Warbler 1

Yellow Warbler 1

Common Yellowthroat 2

Wilson's Warbler 6

Green-tailed Towhee 2 (FOS)

Clay-colored Sparrow 1 (FOS) 

Lazuli Bunting 1

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.
