Subject: [cobirds] Chatfield Banding Station - Bird Conservancy of the Rockies 5/4/25
Belated report on Sunday (we were closed today; not due to weather, just
our day off).

A slightly better day; 12 if we count the 3 repeats (a wren, a black bird
and a Song Sparrow). We got our first Gray Catbird, who arrived exactly on
schedule. We also had our first rarish species - a young Northern Parula -
the 5th caught since 2008. All visitors got to experience birds up close!

Here's the breakdown of the new and return:

Northern House Wren 1 new, 1 return (banded last year)
Gray Catbird 1
Orange-crowned Warbler 2
Northern Parula 1
Lincoln's Sparrow 1
Red-winged Blackbird 2

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!)
