Hi All,

Yesterday i reported 40+ Magpie geese down at Reedy Lake near Geelong.

I went down to the Reedy Lake again last night, and the Magpie Geese were there again. One of them had a extremely large copper collar around its neck, about 5cm in diameter. Does anyone know what this might be?

Is serendip sanctuary attaching birds with transmitters or something?  It seems overly large even for a transmitter???

Peter
