 | | The birds were weighed and measured, checked for wing moult, carefully banded with metal and color bands and flags, and released to return to their flock. | | | Flags are plastic colored bands with an extra tab that protrudes and identifies the country in which the bird was originally banded. | | | Patricia González holds a banded red knot that was originally captured and banded at Delaware Bay, Delaware, USA in May of 2000, and was recaptured in the cannon net here. |

| | BBL - Why Band Birds? |
| | Bird banding data are useful in both research and management projects. | | | When banded birds are captured, released alive and reported from somewhere else we can reconstruct the movements of the individual bird. | | | The Bird Banding Laboratory can give banders permission to use additional techniques to study birds, including markers that are more visible than the metal service bands. |

| | We, along with most other banding facilities in North America, send all of our banding data to the Bird Banding Laboratory (which is part of the USGS), which stores all of this information. | | | Bird banding also assesses the species diversity and signs of breeding over time. | | | Now knowing how important this information can be, if you happen to come across a dead bird with a band on it, call 1-800-327-2263 with the band number, how, when and where the bird or band was found. |

| | Frames: For the Birds: Pitchfork Review |
| | The band handles noise best on "Headlong" by balancing it with resolutely melodic violin and lead guitar parts, which isn't to speak of the way they easily morph the gentle chorus refrain into an aching plea for help in the raging bridge. | | | The guitars are similarly molten on "Early Bird," though the vocal melody greatly overpowers them in the mix. | | | Perhaps the album's single greatest flaw is that the band have chosen to concentrate almost too much on the slow and sparse, but they do it well enough that it's hard to complain too much. |
