Bands recovered and reported by hunters provide valuable information about survival, migration, harvest rates, and distribution for a wide variety of migratory game birds. To report band numbers from all types of birds (except pigeons), go on-line at www.reportband.gov. The information needed is: the band number, hunter’s name and address, and date and location (nearest town) of harvest. You can also report bands by calling 1-800-327-BAND (2263). You will receive a certificate of appreciation and information about the bird you reported. The band is yours to keep!
