news, but I can see that this can be a good place to keep everyone up on
BCAS happenings.
One thing Cheryl and I have been working on - with Missy and April
Montgomery of the Uncompahgre Project- is a grant to hire a Crawford
GUSG Working Group Coordinator. This has worked out so well with Leigh
Robertson as the San Miguel Basin Coordinator, we would love to have
another one. I don't know how likely it is, but April is working on the
grant application.
Another thing that has taken up a lot of Cheryl's time is the
Ridgway Bird Banding project. It finally looks like it is a go for the
forth year, and we were able to get the dates we wanted, in early
September. Thanks to RMBO, Ridgway State Park and Grand Valley Audubon
for helping with the scheduling.
I hope everyone can make it to Coen and Brenda's Ecuador
presentation Thursday. And on a fun/birding note, we did have our first
black chinned hummer yesterday.
