Hey Michael,
We came across this information recently and would like to share it with you regarding banded Roseate Spoonbill sightings:
Should you observe a banded spoonbill, please note the following:
1. The color of the band(s), and if possible what leg(s) it is on.
2. If there is an alpha/numeric code, and the orientation of code (horizontal or vertical)
3. The location of the sighting (be as specific as possible, and please include the county)
4. Your background (biologist, birder, etc.) and how to contact you if you are willing to be contacted should we need further information.
If you have an opportunity to photograph the bird and/or the habitat, this helps us to confirm the code if the photograph is of exceptional quality, and/or to learn more about plumage changes and habitats used.
Please report any sightings to Audubon of Florida at the: Tavernier Science Center, 115 Indian Mound Trail, Tavernier,
FL (305) 852- 5318 or Coastal Islands Sanctuaries, 410 Ware Blvd, Suite 702, Tampa, FL 33619 (813) 623-6826.
Sightings can also be reported online, as well as additional information on this project at: www.audubonofflorida.org
We hope that you will report it.
Nice photo!
Nature is Awesome!
