Hi Birders, Today we wrapped up banding at the Ridgway station with low diversity, but a decent number of birds (40). The unofficial total count is 328 birds banded of 40 different species, over nine days. Yellow-rumped Warblers by far outnumbered any other species this season, and today was no exception.
Mountain Chickadee 5 Ruby-crowned Kinglet 1 Orange-crowned Warbler 5 Audubon's Yellow-rumped Warbler 27 Wilson's Warbler 2 My apologies to the Lincoln's Sparrows of 9/16, which were inadvertently left off of yesterday's report (there were three, plus one recapture from this season). Thank you to all of the volunteers, park employees, and visitors who helped keep everything running smoothly and made the past two weeks so enjoyable. I hope to see you again at the GVAS station! -Stephanie Stephanie Coates Bander, Ridgway and GVAS stations Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory scoat...@gmail.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
