Another early spring day for us - banded 6 birds, caught 2 returns (birds that were banded in prior years) and 4 repeats (birds that had been caught previously this year). The returns included a House Wren that was banded in 2022 and recaught in both 2023 and 2024. I don't know that we've ever captured a House Wren in 4 consecutive years. Here are the 8 new birds for the season:
Northern House Wren 2 new, 1 banded in 2022 (see above) American Robin 1 (there are many noisy Robins around the station right now) Orange-crowned Warbler 1 Wilson's Warbler 1 Spotted Towhee 1 Red-winged Blackbird 1, banded 2024
We are banding Tuesday through Sunday (closed Mondays) through May 31, weather permitting. There are opportunities for the public to visit on weekends and occasional weekdays through the Denver Audubon website <https://www.denveraudubon.org/calendar>. (Some days are already sold out, so sign up now if you are interested!)
