Interesting Birds
#64
Karla, I teach, sometimes preach, about birds wherever I go to anyone who is interested.  I give PowerPoint talks to local clubs, birding groups, Audubon societies, etc.  We have hosted some 24 birding and nature groups for seminars and banding in Peaceful Valley and at the Palisade farm.  

In July, I'll talk about the results and discoveries of banding at the Sedona Hummingbird Festival since 2012. There, my banding team has given demonstrations to as many as 800 people in three mornings.  In Sedona, we have banded hundreds of hummingbirds of seven species, plus a first of it's kind Rivoli's x Black-chinned hybrid.   One of our site hosts attracts some 5000-6000 individual hummingbirds daily to their garden. It's awesome.  https://sedonahummingbirdfestival.com/  This year, we begin a new study of Rivoli's Hummingbird nesting in Oak Creek Canyon, AZ.

In Colorado, I've banded 11 hummingbird species including several state record birds.  Only two species normally breed in CO, the Broad-tailed and the Black-chinned.  If anyone sees anything different before the southbound Rufous and Calliope come through in July, please let me know.  Accidentals can happen at any time, and one of our goals is to document rare and accidental species in CO.

Last summer, I wanted to invite  the JT-BarK bird folks to see our hummingbird meadow, but time gets so tight in the peak of season.  I'll schedule something soon and post to this thread.
