 As part of a larger study, we put wing tags on 37 adult *Herring Gulls* on
Gull Island in the Witless Bay Seabird Ecological Reserve off
Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula.  The tags are beige with black codes like
"X07" or "X29".  The birds were also fitted with the black-on-orange colour
bands that have been used in Newfoundland for many years.  We know from
other band returns that Newfoundland's breeding Herring Gulls range from
southern Labrador to the Carolinas.  Any re-sights can be reported to the
Bird Banding Office/Bird Banding Lab (www.reportband.gov), or directly to
me at alex.bond@usask.ca.  Photos, anecdotes, and stories of the birds are
most welcome!
