What a NICE day to be outside! The Banding station did not have the capture activity we had yesterday but there are a lot of birds flitting around the grove of trees near the banding site. One new species for the season was captured today: Black-throated Green Warbler ( A handsome male with its black throat). Folks from the Pikes Peak Birding and Nature Festival were having a great time here at the Ranch.
