I have an update on the banded Red-Knot that I photographed and documented on August 14th, 2012. This evening, I received a certificate from USGS (United States Geological Survey) which indicated that the subject was a hatched bird from 2005 or earlier from Argentina SA. See certificate for more information below. I hope by posting photos of banded birds and the information gathered in reporting such sightings, will encourage more observers to submit reports of their findings.
