Posted this Bird Band a couple week's ago I found while at the farm,got this in the mail today.....If you ever find one let these people know,It's a lot more than just finding out if the bird is dead or alive.....Thank's and HH!!
My band is from a racing pigeon, but no information about it on the American Racing Pigeon website, suspect it is too old, as their info begins in 2000. Will e-mail them the info. The bird who wore the band was born in 1989.
This just goes to show you that metal detecting serves yet another positive purpose. Add that to reinserting thousand and thousands of dollars of coins back into the economy, removing tons of scrap metal from the parks and schools, removing toxic lead bullets from the environment, returning untold numbers of rings and other personal property to their owners, assisting crime fighting. Bravo to you sir and to us, your fellow detectionist.
