Bird Conservancy of the Rockies-Chatfield Banding Station 5-2-21

[Meredith McBurney]

Still very slow, but the species we are catching are changing.  Caught our first Yellow Warbler, arriving right on schedule (about the only species so far to do that), and our second Wilson's.  House Wrens are present and singing, but haven't been caught yet.  Just 5 new today:

White-breasted Nuthatch 1

Yellow Warbler 1

Wilson's Warbler 1

Spotted Towhee 1

Green-tailed Towhee 1

We are open six days per week (closed Tuesdays) through May 30. While some COVID related restrictions remain in place, there are opportunities most mornings for the public to visit, but reservations are required.  Visit https://denveraudubon.org/events/ for more information and to sign-up.  Because each hour-long session is limited to 10 people, we anticipate selling out most mornings, so register soon if you are interested!
