Shot a 5 year old drake woodie in central Georgia that was realeased in Sharon, Georgia. Nothing too special, but shootin a banded bird is always enjoyable!

Not many people are lucky enough to kill a Banded Duck. Resident Canada Geese are another story.
Congrats on yours.
Did you do a google map search to estimate how far she migrated? That will surprise you.
I hope you have more banded birds in your lifetime. Good Luck!

killed a banded ross goose in arkansas this spring. It was banded on July 2006 in northeast Canada. Killed 2 other banded geese that weekend also 1 snow goose and another ross goose. All 3 banded somewhere in north Canada. I heard the next weekend some guys killed a double banded ross with a 30 dollar reward band.

you can go to
www.reportband.gov
and type in the band number and it will tell you where the bird was banded and so on. You can also submit the kill and location info instead of calling it in. If you have already called it in you can still type the number in and see where it was banded if you don't want to wait on certificate.
