Event Details
Each spring, Denver Audubon contracts a wildlife biologist from Bird Conservancy of the Rockies to band birds at our nature center in Chatfield State Park. This is one of the only opportunities in the state of Colorado to experience wild birds up-close-and-personal. Although our banding station is fun and educational, banding is a national program administered jointly by the US Geological Survey and the Canadian Wildlife Service to support avian research. The goal is to apply uniquely numbered bands on the legs of birds to track the distribution and movements of species, their relative numbers, annual production, life span, and causes of death.
