That is exciting Kevin!

Great work on getting the numbers!

You may have already gone there, but here's the website where you can report the band number, and receive some info about the where the Martin was banded:

**The USGS has another site, for reporting birds banded with a colored band, that also do not have the additional metal federal band:
