Banded Common Loons

[Brett Gullett <brettg@cskt.org>]

Dear Birders:

The Montana Common Loon Working Group has begun a Common Loon banding
operation in July 2003.  Along with Fish & Wildlife Service bands, each
individual has colored bands on each leg.  The combination of colors, dots
and stripes on each leg band identifies each bird.  To aid us in learning
more about the winter ecology and migration of Montana’s breeding
population, please report any sightings of these individuals to the
addresses below.

Thank You for your cooperation
Montana Common Loon Working Group
