SOUL SUNDAY: “The Earth is a fine place and worth fighting for.” ~ Ernest Hemingway
A BANDED BIRD: This Red-tailed Hawk was brought to our Wildlife Hospital after she was seen flying into the side of the barn and was on the ground. The bird had a severe trichomoniasis infection, as seen from the infected eye. Trichomoniasis a parasite that renders birds unable to swallow. Unfortunately there was no way to help the bird and the decision was made to humanly euthanize. But when examined our vet staff discovered a band on her leg. This federal band came from the USGS. The Bird Banding Laboratory (BBL) was established in 1920 supporting the collection, archiving, management and dissemination of information from banded and marked birds in North America. Bird banding data are useful in both scientific research and management and conservation projects. Individual identification of birds makes possible studies of dispersal and migration, behavior and social structure, life-span and survival rate, reproductive success and population growth. When we ran this birds number we found that she was hatched in 1999 and banded in 2000 in Pittsburg, CA. This means that this bird lived a long life in the wild, nearly 20 years!! The average age for a Red-tailed hawk in the wild is 10-15 years. Her age is even more impressive when you consider that about 80% of all raptors born in the wild don't survive their first year.
