Burlington Banding Day Sucess! 3 Males!

May 23, 2012 - Burlington - Lift Bridge

Sue McCreadie Reports:

Today was banding day.  Anne Yagi, Biologist with the Ministry of Natural Resources performed the banding.  We are happy to report that we have 3 healthy boys.  Statistics are as follows:

Jimmy - Black Band 83/Y - wearing a green tape on his right leg - weighing 669 grams - 24 days old.

Port Hope – Black Band 84/Y - wearing a yellow tape on his right leg – weighing 636 grams – 24 days old

Carrey – Black Band 85/Y - wearing a red tape on his right leg – weighing 686 grams (with a full crop) – 22 days old

Given that they are all males, the Official Fledge Watch will begin on May 31^st.

Let the fun begin as they fledge and learn to fly and hunt.  Thanks to PWGSC and the Lift Bridge Staff for their support.
