Title: Trumpeter Swans
Post by: Reg on March 14, 2011, 09:08:47 PM

This pair of Trumpeter Swans were at Lynn Shores in Whitby today,
one was taged on the wing with A71, while the other had a leg band that
I was able to get a partial shot off. Can anyone can Identify the leg band from these shots?

My guess is it says:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

1-800-327-BAND

??59-00355

WRITE TO: BIRD BAND Laurel MD 20708 USA

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

It might be enough to report......but realize the specific ID (second line) is not complete.......it would consist of 8 or 9 numbers

Thanks Halton Hills;
I reported the pair to the Wye Marsh Trumpeter Swan reporting site, waiting to hear if they get back to me
barring that I will check out the address you suggested, I found the site where I can report it too.
