Subject: [cobirds] Grand Valley Audubon Banding Station - Bird Conservancy of the Rockies (09/24/25) – Mesa Co.


Another average day with an increase in White-crowned Sparrow captures. We
had one Spotted Towhee recapture today that was originally banded in a
previous season. Nice to see at least one recapture today after having zero
yesterday. We got our third jay for the season. Another hatch year bird.
This one had a really nice limit within the greater coverts which was
absent in our other two hatch years.

*6 Newly Banded Birds:*

Gambel’s White-crowned Sparrow: 4

Orange-crowned Warbler: 1

Woodhouse’s Scrub-Jay: 1



*1 Recaptured Birds:*

Spotted Towhee: 1


The station will operate daily (Monday-Friday) from around 7:00a-1:00p
(weather dependent) until October 10th.

We’re located at James M Robb Colorado River State Park by the Kingfisher
parking lot. Follow the yellow signs pointing to the banding station! Feel
free to stop by when we’re around! Or join us on our Public Day on Sept 27th
.

*** Note: State park entrance fees apply. More information about Ridgway
State Park can be found here.
