The bluebird that Cathy posted appears to have an aluminum band PLUS a color band. Can you get a photo of the other leg? Dave

Hi Guys,
Both legs are banded as well! Photos can be submitted to the banding lab and are super useful. The other day we had a report of color-banded loon where the observer photos were the only way it could be narrowed down to one from 22 potential matches. Good stuff!
