Bubblehead Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Going to see a lot more of those. Those and back pack trackers. Lots of money being spent on migratory bird research right now from a multitude of agencies and NGOs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ 11 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 What the hell kind of tag is that ? Nice pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trophy8 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Wonder if it's a bio degradable band? Can see that causing a problem for the bird. Beautiful Blue wing teal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need away to identify the bird without catching or harvesting it as it migrates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beenthere Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Wildfowl did an article a few years back about Collared birds. Unfortunately the data gets very poor results due to that bird being considered a trophy. Though when a collared bird is spotted you can still report it. I spotted a few Canadas (Canadians are people not geese) a few years ago. They were collared in NYC at a park and reported in Lawrenceville.
