I learned so much but there is still SO MUCH MORE to learn! :) It's also interesting to me now to see how other stations do things differently.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351611064033046919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5068198388134099737.post-28748609895421709942010-09-23T01:33:59.597-06:002010-09-23T01:33:59.597-06:00A very intersting post.

People like that do a great job in adding to our knowledge of birds. I sometimes see banded/flagged birds (and report them) but it would be great to have the opportunity to work with a team that does the banding.mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230845410313320080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5068198388134099737.post-24879304189170994792010-09-19T09:06:06.580-06:002010-09-19T09:06:06.580-06:00I have a friend who does this in our area.
