[Maine-birds] banded Herring Gulls

Hi everyone-

This summer colleagues and I continued a project studying the costs and consequences of rooftop nesting by Herring Gulls in Portland.  As part of this project we band both adults and chicks.  They have a metal band on their left leg and either a orange or blue band on their right leg.  The color band has a three letter code.  Please keep your eyes open for them and report any sightings directly to me.  I need to know the letter code and location.  Thanks,

noah perlut
