Hi all,
I colour-banded a nestling Black-necked (Satin) Stork at Gilletts Ridge (Clarence Valley Northern NSW) on 12 December 2007. I placed a yellow band on the upper left leg and a green band on the upper right leg. It was observed at Port Macquarie on 12 May 2012. I lost many emails from my old computer and now don’t have the original correspondence reporting the sighting. I was of the view that the Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme (ABBBS) would have received the details but they haven’t. I have only the date and the general location ‘Port Macquarie’ of the record but would be keen to receive more details to allow them to be lodged with the ABBBS. I am hoping that the person/s who observed the banded bird may be a subscriber to Birding-aus or someone may know who saw the bird. Any information would be appreciated.
Regards
Greg
