Subject: [cobirds] Grand Valley Audubon Banding Station - Bird Conservancy of the Rockies (09/30/25) – Mesa Co.


A little bit more productive today as we continued getting a few more
migrant birds in the net. Some of our White-crowned Sparrows had a decent
amount of fat, including a recapture from last week that put on 3 grams or
so. Today we had our first Lincoln’s Sparrow show up at the station. The
morning felt very active with all the WCSP song, but many of them knew to
stay away.

*8 Newly Banded Birds:*

Gambel’s White-crowned Sparrow: 2

House Finch: 1

Lincoln’s Sparrow: 1

Song Sparrow: 1

Spotted Towhee: 2

Wilson’s Warbler: 1





*1 Recaptured Birds:*

Gambel’s White-crowned Sparrow: 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!

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