Hi Everyone,
 Governments do not listen to emotional and unsubstantiated information. 
They require proof before they will act. So how do you get proof that 
birds migrate? You band them, acquire information, and then you go back 
to the government, plus the overseas governments where the birds spend 
time during their migrations. Only then does the fight begin for the 
conservation of birds through their flyways. And this is only the first 
step in acquiring knowledge about bird migration patterns. Many of the 
conservation plans in place now for birds came about as a result of 
banding information.
Cheers,
Jill
