Another beautiful morning to be in SE Colorado! A crisp frosty morning in some areas still did not produce more birds. A few more songs were heard early on, but no numbers. An Ovenbird sang several times throughout the morning. It was happy to be there. The Pikes Peak Festival Birding group as far as I could tell did not see or hear the Ovenbird this morning. A shy Ovenbird apparently; It did not want to show off for the masses. Sorry, I have no control over the birds. :) Well, we did capture more birds today than yesterday. That is not saying a whole lot. No surprises in the net. All were females except the House Finch. Here is the mighty list: *5 New Banded Birds* Audubon's (Yellow-rumped) Warbler-1 Northern House Wren-1 Lazuli Bunting-1 House Finch-1 Brown-headed Cowbird-1
No Recaptures
Tomorrow and Saturday the Banding station will be open from Sunrise until @11 AM. If what I was told this morning stays true, there will be no construction tomorrow through the weekend!!! Make sure you sign up at the Aiken Audubon Website if visiting the ranch and are not in the daily festival birding group. https://www.aikenaudubon.org
Have a good Friday and weekend!
