Hi Joe,
Each banding drive probably took about 3 hours (including driving time)and we might band about 100-200 geese. As far as putting bands on each goose? That probably took about 10 minutes for each goose, which includes time to take the measurements! Their bites can hurt if they get a big chunk of skin. Especially because once they get a good grip they twist! It can leave a pretty good welt on your skin! I tried to stay clear of their bills whenever I could! Ms Pierce |
