But the person holding the camera needs a steady hand with the proper settings and at 500 mm that is not an easy task...nice work RCF  ;)

Yup, that's definitely a 3 & a Y, RCF! And you're right! I think it only makes sense to declare that the bird in your photo must be Hurricane!  :D And a beauty of a photo, I might add!

We have banded 8 birds with 2x over Y.

This sequence of bands is for males.  We do we know we have one female who was banded as a male in this sequence (Hurricane) and maybe two (Hurricane's sib Chinook, status unknown).  All the others are male - Brooklyn (survived), Max (unknown), Ty (survived), Tupper (unknown), Fate (unknown) and Mac (deceased).



According to this post, doesn't it seem logical that it could only be Hurricane with a 3 and a Y.

Mac..........20/Y
Brooklyn....21/Y
Ty.............22/Y
Hurricane....23/Y
Chinook......24/Y
Fate...........25/Y
Tupper.......27/Y

It says in Dennis's 2008 pics that Max's band number is 26/2, not a Y, maybe a typo?  I couldn't see the number in the photo.


Edit to add info

I guess it was just a typo.

Ahh, now that looks like Hurricane without even seeing the legband  ;D
And yes, looking close at your zoomed image, that does look like the top number on the band has "3" for the second digit!
So close to seeing that whole number RCF, I feel your pain ...  :'(

I'm not in any pain......I know it's Hurrcane.  ;D

Snow Bird

Brooklyn



Love this picture.  Does look like one that should be framed and hung on a wall.
