The five digits at the end would be right, but I'm missing a digit or so wi=
th the first part as the mallard would not position itself to allow me to s=
ee the number.  It might be 2101-96950 or some other digit.  2100-96950 is =
for an older band for a ruby-crowned kinglet.

Hi,

The number does not appear to be one that would be used on mallards. See he=

Was the band bi-coloured? Perhaps the bird is of domestic origin. The other=
 possibility is a bird banded in a country other than Canada or the US, but=
 this seems highly unlikely for a mallard.

Hope this helps,

Ron

Hi all:


I found a banded mallard male today at Woodland Gardens in Bridgewater.  I =
thought I had the whole band number which was silver as I could get www.rep=
ortband.gov<http://www.reportband.gov> off of it and the number to phone of=
 800-327-band (2263).  The band is metal and silver in color and I thought =
it was 210-96950 or it could be 96950-210 I'm not sure which format it woul=
d be in.  Suggestions would be useful.  I pulled this info off of 33 photos=
 that I took from what I thought were all of the angles needed for all of t=
he numbers.  When I go through to the banding site, they say the band numbe=
r is not one on record.  I didn't try it in the second format though with t=
he 210 at the end.
