What Julie just said. Except we banded 8 birds and recaught 2:
White-breasted Nuthatch 1 (FOS - likely 1 of the pair that has been hanging around the banding station for a week, feasting on little worms)
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1
Hermit Thrush 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 1
Wilson's Warbler 2
Green-tailed Towhee 1
Lincoln's Sparrow 1
Recaps were a Northern House Wren and a Wilson's Warbler
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
