Read MoreSnowy Owl with Band
I was quite disappointed when I saw the size of the band on this particular owl. I can’t understand why anyone would use a cumbersome chunk of fiberglass this large for banding. I question why they would be allowed to have a permit and use this type of band. It must affect the bird’s ability to fly silently. What a way to treat one of our northern visitors.
