Sunny, then windy, so a somewhat slower day. We welcomed back today the second of the senior citizen Yellow Warblers who have been seen in recent years. 2700-33166, posing proudly in the attached photo next to her entry on our Longevity Chart, was banded in 2013. She's not the oldest we've recorded, but she's getting up there! Hoping for more before the season is over!
Here's a breakdown of the 18 new birds today: Plumbeous Vireo 1 (FOS) House Wren 1 Gray Catbird 6 Yellow Warbler 4 new, 1 banded 2013 Common Yellowthroat 1 Wilson's Warbler 1 Yellow-breasted Chat 1 Lincoln's Sparrow 1 White-crowned Sparrow, Mountain 1 [image: 2700-33166 1.jpg] We will be open daily, WEATHER PERMITTING, through May 31, except for Memorial Day. We are opening nets at 6:30, and most days will have birds back at the station by 7:15. We aim to close by noon most days, earlier if it is very hot, very cold, or very windy. Registration is required for all weekend visitors; see the Denver Audubon website to sign up. Individuals may visit weekdays without registering before the school groups arrive, which is usually around 10 a.m. Come visit!
