I went on a trip recently, and found a bird band. There were no bones nearby, so I figured it was from a long time ago. I gave it to the nature center on the island where I stayed, and I just recieved an email back about it.
Sorry, no pic b/c I gave it to them.
"Hi !
You left a note at the Nature Center regarding a bird band that you found on Little Neck Crossing. Yes, it is a bird band and it was on a quail !!
What makes this find very unique is that Gordon Mobley did quail banding only in the 1970’s !!!! So, this is an old band. We of course no longer have quail hunting on XXXXX Island, that stopped in the mid 1990’s.
So, good for you on a great find!!"
I read a post a while back where someone had found one of these. How common are they to find?
