I'm sorry to say we didn't even get a taste of the wonderfully wild banding activity at Chico! We were rained out on Sunday (third day in a week) and off on Monday and then today was very slow starting. Picked up a bit as the morning went on but never got busy......only 24 new and returning birds caught, most of them likely breeders at Chatfield:
House Wren 1 Swainson's Thrush 1 (yes, just 1, FOS) Gray Catbird 4 new, 1 banded 2021 Yellow Warbler 4, all returns, 3 banded 2022, 1 banded 2021 Yellow-rumped Warbler, Myrtle 1 Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 2 Yellow-rumped Warbler, Intergrade 1 Common Yellowthroat 4 Yellow-breasted Chat 2 Western Tanager 1 (FOS) Green-tailed Towhee 1 Brown-headed Cowbird 1 (FOS) We will be open Tuesday-Sunday, weather permitting, through the end of May. Denver Audubon has scheduled one-hour time slots at 7:30, 8:30 and 9:30 for visitors on weekends; visit here <https://denveraudubon.org/events/> to register. (I believe many time slots are already sold out, so register soon if you would like to visit.)
