Kestrel with Leg Band

["Greg" <>]

Hi David,

In the 1970's Graham and Annette Cam and I banded a number of Nankeen 
Kestrels in the Hawkesbury lowlands.  It is unlikely that your bird is one 
of these due to the great time lapse but I would also be interested to know 
if someone is banding Kestrels there now.  I know that Penny Olsen and 
others is/has been banding them in the Canberra area.  A Kestrel that I 
banded at Woolooware, southern Sydney, was recovered at Moggill, Queensland 
so your bird may have travelled.
The bird is definitely not one of mine as I always band on the right tarsus, 
except when using multiple bands like on Ospreys.
Regards

Greg Clancy
