Hi All,
As some of you know a number of volunteers and I have been operating a
banding station at the YMCA of the Rockies south of Estes Park for some
time now, actually it has been 16 years.
As a collective group we have captured and banded 88 different species
at the site including hawks, owls, hummingbirds and even Band-tailed
Pigeons.
As of today we have trapped and banded 9971 birds.
I am happy to say my next Monday or Wednesday (we trap every Monday,
Wednesday and Friday) we will break the 10,000 mark for birds banded.
If anyone would like to see what we have captured over the years, you
can see the numbers at www.CARRIEP.org. Look under research, then YMCA
Bird Banding
Furthermore, The Barn Owls that CARRI has been monitoring are close to
fledging. That can also be seen at www.CARRIEP.org
Best,
Scott Rashid
