Another nice banding day, with a good variety of species. 58 new birds today:

Our next closed day is Mon, 9/14. This Saturday is the Barr Lake Birding Festival, with lots of family oriented activities and bird hikes and lots of visitors to the banding station. We are opening nets at 6:30, and will run until noon or whenever it gets too hot. School groups arrive about 9:30 a.m. most weekdays. It is wise to come early to beat the school groups and for more/better birds.
