Subject: [cobirds] Chico Basin Ranch Banding Station Report- Bird Conservancy of the Rockies-5/15/2025
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!
