in
2010!" Pelican (American White Pelican) Banding Program
Janie Giltner: Tagged Birds
These are photos of the pelican taken by Janie at the lock and dam 14* on the IL
(Illinois)
side.
July 31,
2014: Janie kindly e-mailed us, saying “I shot one of your pelicans with my
camera. It's a green tag with black numbers reading 442! I was at the lock and
dam 14* on the IL side. He was very happy eating fish healthy looking. He told
me to tell you hello! But I would love to know more about this bird If you have
info. I can send you a picture if you would like!” We forwarded Janie’s message
to Jeff DiMatteo, the leader of the Pelican Banding Program; see our Letter
205
Pelican (American White Pelican) Banding Program.
Jeff replied to Janie, “That pelican was one of 2000 pelican chicks banded as a
flightless young on 26 June 2010 at the Marsh Lake pelican colony in
Minnesota.” Later Janie reported her pelican sighting to
THE NORTH AMERICAN BIRD BANDING PROGRAM - BIRD BANDING
LABORATORY <
