We just had an immature male broad-tailed at our feeder at 4:50 pm.  The 
last one we saw before this was two days ago.  We will be leaving the 
feeder out for a couple more weeks probably, bringing it in only when it's 
freezing.  Hurry Spring!  : )

[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Banding Report - Grand Valley Audubon Society, 10/8/19

2019-10-08 Thread Vicki Morgan
We are still experiencing slow and sparrow-y days here in Grand Junction, 
with 13 new birds and 8 recaptures.  Fortunately today's birds included two 
new species for the season - a Hermit Thrush and an Oregon Junco.   

White-crowned Sparrow (Mountain) 2 new 1 recapture
White-crowned Sparrow (Gambel's) 8 new 5 recapture
Juniper Titmouse 1 recapture
Song Sparrow 1
Bushtit 1 recapture
Hermit Thrush 1 (FOS)
Oregon Junco 1 (FOS)

Visitors are welcome at the banding station - we start getting birds at 
around 7:45 and close around 11:30, weather permitting.  Banding goes until 
this Friday the 11th.  A front that is expected to move through on 
Wed/Thurs may interfere with banding on those days.  School groups arrive 
at around 9:30, so if you would like to visit it's best to arrive before 
then!

[cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Banding Report - Barr Lake, 10/8/19

2019-10-08 Thread Meredith McBurney
A great fall day, which we shared with the Tuesday Birders!  We banded 66 
new birds, with lots of the usual late fall species plus a rarity and a 
super-rarity - A White-throated Sparrow and (ta-dah!) a PROTHONOTARY 
WARBLER (the 3rd in 31 years).  Here's the breakdown:

Dusky Flycatcher 1
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 7
Hermit Thrush 3
Prothonotary Warbler 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 12
Yellow-rumped Warbler, Myrtle 4
Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 8
Spotted Towhee 2
Chipping Sparrow 2
Song Sparrow 1
Lincoln's Sparrow 2
White-throated Sparrow 1
White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 5
Dark-eyed Junco, Slate-colored 1
Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 6
Dark-eyed Junco, Pink-sided 10

Tomorrow, the high-tech folks from DMNS will be out producing Scientists in 
Action - Garth Spellman and I will be talking about bird banding and 
conservation directly to over 1200 students in schools throughout Colorado 
(plus Texas, Indiana, Michigan and Alaska!)

This is our last week, plus a storm is forecast for Thursday and very cold 
weather for Friday.  The earliest we will open nets is 7:40. We are closing 
nets most days at 11:40.  We will try to keep you posted about changes due 
to weather!
