A beautiful, sunny day and a good mix of birds for our annual Science in Action program with the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. We broadcast live into classrooms across the country - from North Carolina to Alaska and many states in between! Here's the breakdown of the 33 new birds for today:
Brown Creeper 1 (FOS)
House Wren 1
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1
Hermit Thrush 1
American Robin 1
Gray Catbird 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 3
Wilson's Warbler 1
Chipping Sparrow 3
Clay-colored Sparrow 1
White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 12
Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 7
This is our last weekend of the season; we will take the station down after banding on Sunday. We are opening about 6:45 and have birds back at the station by about 7:30. No formal groups scheduled for this final weekend.
