FW: Tagged Pelican

Hi Mark, Dr Greg Johnston of Flinders University in South Australia has been studying Australian Pelicans for several years, so it may have been one of his banded birds (although I think he also uses wing tags). His contact details are: Email: greg.johnston@flinders.edu.au Postal Address: Faculty of Science and Engineering, GPO Box 2100, Adelaide, SA 5001. However, all bird banding in Australia is co-ordinated by the Australian Bird & Bat Banding Scheme, Commonwealth Department of Environment in Canberra. You can report sightings of banded birds to them via the ABBBS website: http://www.environment.gov.au/topics/science-and-research/bird-and-bat-bandi ng/get-involved/report-band-sightings.

Do these observations get reported, and if so, who to?
