[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Chatfield Banding Report, 4/23/22

2022-04-23 Thread Meredith McBurney
Except for the wind, opening day of spring banding was very normal, which was excellent after the very low numbers of birds caught both spring (Chatfield) and fall (Barr) in 2021. The wind, which kicked up about 9:15 and required the closure of over half the nets, probably kept it from being a

Finally able to see the Brown Pelican today around 3PM from the overlook. We thought we had missed it because it wasn't with the white pelicans near the beaver dam. But I happened to look up at the right time just as it soared over us and then landed back into the water. It was so very

Wow! Thanks for posting about this Hugh! It was right after this that the Brown Pelican was seen at Cherry Creek on the 16th too! (It has since returned to Chatfield - unless as another birder reported, perhaps there were two?) Rosanne Juergens Centennial On Saturday, April 23, 2022 at 2:43:39

Hi By the 1960’s, due to organochlorine pesticides, the once-abundant Brown Pelican disappeared from the northern Caribbean (Texas-Louisiana). Today, due to conservation initiatives, the Brown Pelican is now again abundant in the region, thus explaining the higher possibility of wanderers
