Crane 355



I received this report today from a Brevard, NC, birder, Jeff Llewellyn
[Llewellyn@hermes.brevard.edu]
>
>I saw the Sandhill Cranes once again yesterday afternoon at Lake Junaluska
>[I-40 west of Asheville] and I managed to get a closer look at them.  The
>larger of the pair had a
>long, yellow band on the upper left leg with the number 355 on it.  There
>was a much smaller band (appeared light pink in color) on the lower right
>leg right just above the foot, but I could not tell if there was a number on
>the band.  There were no bands on the second crane.
>
>Who should I report this to?  The fact that one of the birds is banded tells
>me that this information should be passed along.
>
>Thanks for your help on this.
