I've got an art commission, and was wondering whether anybody on this list
has, or can point me to, close-up views of a band in situ around a bird's
leg. Having been to bandings, I've got the basic idea in my head, but I
like to err on the side of detail and accuracy.
Also, if anyone could pass me the subscription address for PA-Bird, I
would be very grateful.
Sighted recently: A partly leucistic Fish Crow with a group of about seven
others in downtown DC (21st and Pennsylvania). I made the ID by body
proportion and diagnostic call. This FICR has a large white patch across
one flank, extending from near the beginning of the tail coverts to under
the right wing. Behavior, call, morphology, etc. were otherwise
unremarkable.
