[cobirds] Bird Conservancy Banding Report - Barr Lake Station, 8-25-19
Hot and muggy, but the birds didn't seem to mind! Caught 59 new birds, including a modestly rare Red-eyed Vireo, and a truly senior citizen Black-capped Chickadee, which we banded in 2010! Here's the breakdown for the day: Western Wood-pewee 4 Least Flycatcher 1 Red-eyed Vireo 1 Black-capped Chickadee 1, banded 2010 House Wren 14 new, 2 banded 2018 Yellow Warbler 23 Wilson's Warbler 10 Chipping Sparrow 2 Song Sparrow 1 Tomorrow, Monday, is our day off! We are open 6 days per week, Tuesday-Sunday, weather permitting, through October 13. We are opening nets at 6:40 and should have birds back at the station by 7:20. We will close nets most days at 11:40, with some being closed earlier as long as this heat continues. School groups arrive most weekdays at about 9:30. The best time to visit (fewest people, most birds) is before 9:30 weekdays and Sundays. Come visit!

[cobirds] The New Chatfield State Park, Jeffco and Douglas counties
Driving around Chatfield today I wondered why are all the new roads, paths, and parking lots SO FAR from the water. Then I scrolled through the following maps showing the future water level, and see that it is very close to the new parking lots. https://chatfieldreallocation.org/project-map/ For example, the Plum Creek Day Use parking lot is shown about thirty feet from the water, not .67 miles as it exists now. When the water will be raised, where the additional water will come from, and how it will affect many trees which will be underwater, I don't know. I think Chatfield is still a work-in-progress. Hope the final product will be beneficial to birds. Tom Wilberding Littleton, CO -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
