Hello CObirders, On Wednesday we opened the Ridgway banding station, Thursday was our first official day with scheduled school groups, and today we did a public banding demonstration day. We've had a good turnout of both birds and people. In the last two days our numbers have been dominated by Audubon's Yellow-rumped Warblers, with Wilson's Warblers as a close second. Here are the totals for the past four days, including today:
Red-naped Sapsucker 2 Dusky Flycatcher 1 Western Wood Pewee 2 Cassin's Vireo 1 Mountain Chickadee 1 House Wren 6 Orange Crowned Warbler 2 Yellow Warbler 7 Audubon's Yellow-rumped Warbler 22 MacGillivray's Warbler 3 Common Yellowthroat 2 Wilson's Warbler 21 Western Tanager 1 Lazuli Bunting 1 Brewer's Sparrow 1 Chipping Sparrow 8 Song Sparrow 3 Lincoln's Sparrow 3 24 birds on 9/8, 11 on 9/9, 24 on 9/10, and 28 on 9/11 (not including recaps).
