Finally got back to banding, after 2 days of rain! Another typical early spring day:
House Wren 5 Spotted Towhee 1 Lincoln's Sparrow 4 Brown-headed Cowbird 2 American Goldfinch 2 (a M and F; caught side-by-side in the net. After we released him, he waited for her in a nearby tree) We will be open daily,weather permitting, through May 31, EXCEPT for May 8-9. We will be opening nets at 6:30, and should have the first birds back at the station by 7:30. We will close by noon most days; earlier if it is too hot. On most days, you will see more birds if you come early, and will be more likely to avoid crowds. On weekdays, we have school groups visiting every day, and they usually arrive at the station sometime between 9:30 and 10 a.m. Meredith McBurney Chatfield Banding Station Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
