Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Banding Report 9/3/25

[meredith]

Our strangely slow fall continues; we now have our daily supply of Wilson's Warblers (at 14 today, less than most years, but some) and very little else.  I haven't tried to look at the difference between this year and most of our Barr history (because of our temporary location change due to the dam repair work), but last year on this day, WIWAs were by far the dominant species but we had 8 others; today we had 1 (2 Northern House Wrens).

Looking forward to something of a weather change on Friday........

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 here to register.
