Re: Copper Collar on Magpie Geese

I've recieved the following response from David Drynan
of the Australian Bird & Bat Banding Scheme:

"Just had a chat with the folks at Serendip Sanctuary
and they think it
is one of their birds - apparently they only have one bird still
carrying the copper/gold neck collars, and it is now 15 years old. 
Serendip used to have a captive breeding program for this species, and
would band and attach neck collars upon release to track the fate of the
birds."
