​Notes: This bird has been caught in the breeding season as well as the winter. I wonder how many of his chicks we have banded?
In the background of this photo you can see the individually-numbered metal bands that we put on the birds’ legs. We store the bands on wire loops for easy access, with circular tags indicating the band size. Birds have a variety of leg sizes, so we need a variety of band sizes.
