Hi COBirders, Nancy Gobris, RMBO, opened the CBR banding station for the season, this morning. As expected this early, not too many captures - about 15 total, but a few good early discoveries. While it is starting to green-up after the moisture, this week has been pretty hot for April - and most bird activity was done by about 11:00.
Highlights: banded many local Robins, mostly males, and some recaptures from previous years saw a male Myrtle Warbler above the station banded a male Audubon's Warbler, saw possibly a second one Banded a RC Kinglet, banded two Hermit Thrush banded single FOY House Wren banded several Gambel's White-crowned Sparrows observed on the ranch Am Kestrel, Turkey Vulture, RT Hawk, Ferruginous Hawk, Wilson's Snipe, Say's Phoebe, lotsa W Meadowlark, Horned Lark. Plans for the rest of this week are to be open Th, F , Sat..
