A slower day than yesterday; 16 new birds, 1 return. We did catch a young Chestnut-sided Warbler, only the 4th of the species ever caught at this banding station. Here's the breakdown:
House Wren 6 Yellow Warbler 2 new, 1 banded in 2015 Chestnut-sided Warbler 1 Wilson's Warbler 1 Yellow-breasted Chat 1 Spotted Towhee 3 White-crowned Sparrow, Mountain 1 Lazuli Bunting 1 The banding station runs daily, weather permitting, through June 1 (except Memorial Day), from 7:00 to approximately 11:30. There have been some changes in WEEKEND visiting policies - If you are planning a weekend visit, I strongly encourage you to go to Denveraudubon.org to get more information and guarantee your spot by PRE-REGISTERING. Weekdays are the same as in the past - school groups arrive between 9:30 and 10; early weekday mornings are the best time for a peaceful visit with us and the birds!
