Back in September '06, on a trip to California, I saw a White-crowned Sparrow with colour rings (bands). When I returned to the UK I emailed all of the details to an address I found via Dirk Raes CR-birding site for N American sightings.
Shortly after I got a reply from a gentleman at the US Geologcial Survey asking me for the numbers on the rings. In reply I said I did not see any numbers but would be surprised if there were any, considering the small sizes of the rings used. Since then I have heard nothing from the US Geological Survey.
Does anyone on Birdforum know where I may find contact details of the researchers running the scheme and I can pass on details of my sighting?
