[cobirds] RMBO Banding at Chico Basin Ranch, 5/15-16, El Paso Co.

Hi, All --

 

It was another busy day of banding day at Chico Basin Ranch on Wednesday, with 90 birds banded.  Today was a different story, with only 14 banded.  The winds picked up early on, forcing us to close the nets at 10:00.  But not before we caught and banded the Yellow-throated Warbler found in the grove yesterday by Percival, Maynard, and Drummond.  Thanks, Guys!
