We continue to poke along, with just a handful of birds banded each morning. Of our 6 new birds today, 2 were interesting - our first Junco of the season (seems early to me......) and a lovely Townsend's Solitaire. Here are today's 6:
Townsend's Solitaire 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 1
MacGillivray's Warbler 1
Wilson's Warbler 2
Dark-eyed Junco, Pink-sided 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
