I also had a pic of a banded bird yesterday. A lone banded pigeon at Bellevue Beach. The band was light green and it shows the number 21. The pigeon would be similar to a brown adult as shown in Sibley. It had brown bands on its wings with a white bar and brown chest....its head and neck were the color of morning dove. It had an all white rear end while sitting. It was as big as a rock dove or bigger.

Some sort of domestic bird I guess.

No Black Tern yesterday....not during the morning at least.
