Regarding below request (#175 from Kathleen Whitney, subject Burrowing Owls

and recording bird leg band combinations): normal protocol for reading bands is top-left/lower-left -- top-right/lower-right -- for instance: red/green [left leg] -- FWS/blue [right leg] -- where FWS is the Fish and Wildlife Service band [sometimes also abbreviated as "S" indicating its silver color]. Also, please distinguish lime green (pale) from dark green, light blue (pale sky blue) from dark blue, etc; if the band is striped (for instance 'white-lightblue') - or pink, or whatever color(s) you may see... Thanks.
