Michael Brown, on a recovered bird band...
> Other than writing, might there be someone on Tweeters who would have info?
> Would appreciate this message being forwarded to someone who can help, as
> this is my first experience trying to get bird band information.

Call (800) 327-2263 or e-mail bbl at nbs.gov.
Provide as much detail as possible. The BBL will send a certificate of
appreciation, which provides detail on the banding. Be patient; it may take a
couple of months.

Obtaining "local" information on such band recoveries may satisfy your
curiosity, but reporting the information to the BBL assures that the bander
will also be notified and the record will be available to other interested
people.
