Well, you sure cannot depend on the weather forecast here. This morning was a bit cooler than predicted but we caught more birds than yesterday. A couple new species for the season include: White-eyed Vireo and Curve-billed Thrasher. Not sure what the thrasher was doing near the nets; however, a nice bird to see.
*3 Recaptures-breeding species* American Robin Yellow Warbler Bullock's Oriole
Birds are in full breeding and still a few migrants trickling through. Birder's have observed Ladder-backed Woodpecker, American Robin, House Finch families on the ranch. If wanting to visit the ranch this week, please register online at the Aiken Audubon website www.aikenaudubon.com
The banding station will be open tomorrow through Saturday from sunrise until @ 11AM. Please stop by to share our sightings.
Have a good day,
Julie Shieldcastle Bander, Chico Basin Ranch Bird Conservancy of the Rockies
