Hi everyone, my name is Adam Cupito and I am a bird bander for the Bird
Conservancy of the Rockies. I will be operating 2 banding stations on the
Western Slope this Fall! Our current banding site is located at the Dallas
Creek Area of Ridgway State Park, and has just completed its first week.
Quite a find! I will cast another vote for juvenile Long-tailed Jaeger.
A few other features not previously mentioned:
1. Juvenal plumage thanks to all those pale tips to the upperwing coverts;
plus the barring on the undertail coverts
2. Barring on the upper and undertail coverts is thick, bold
Folks,
There has been some exciting birds at Chatfield both yesterday and today!

There will be a field trip to Chatfield SP on Thursday, Sept 13 meeting at
5:30 pm at the Marina Sandspit. Maybe we will find a jaeger, or maybe
something else as we focus on interesting waterbirds that may turn up
around now... Sabine's or other rare gulls, Red Phalarope, or?
I will post when
According to Sibley, only the Long-tailed shows the crisp white barring and
only on juveniles.

Today was the busiest day of the season yet, mostly due to Wilson's
Warblers. I banded 55 new birds of 14 species. Four new species were added
to the season's total today: Blue Grosbeak, Western Tanager, Red-naped
Sapsucker, and Black-headed Grosbeak.
Here is the summary of newly banded birds

Hey COBirders,
I banded a late juv Northern Waterthrush this morning at Clear Spring Ranch,
#16 for the season. I’ve only had two after this date in 7 falls.
The Spizella flock has mostly moved on, finally. I still caught 20 Chipping
Sparrows, 4 Clay-colored Sparrows, and a single Brewer’s
With limited time I need all the help I can get from CObirds updates.
Thanks, Joe Roller
