James, The last digit before the dash is likely a 7, which is an indicator
of the band size.

The five digits at the end would be right, but I'm missing a digit or so
with the first part as the mallard would not position itself to allow me to
see the number.  It might be 2101-96950 or some other digit.  2100-96950 is
for an older band for a ruby-crowned kinglet.

Hi,

The number does not appear to be one that would be used on mallards. See
here: https://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/bbl/resources/presize7.cfm
Bird Banding Laboratory - Patuxent Wildlife Research Center
<https://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/bbl/resources/presize7.cfm>

0027-32000: 7: aluminum butt-end: 0347-00001 THRU 0347-10000: 7: aluminum
butt-end: 0367-00001 ...


Was the band bi-coloured? Perhaps the bird is of domestic origin. The other
possibility is a bird banded in a country other than Canada or the US, but
this seems highly unlikely for a mallard.

Hope this helps,

Ron

Hi all:


I found a banded mallard male today at Woodland Gardens in Bridgewater.  I
thought I had the whole band number which was silver as I could get
www.reportband.gov off of it and the number to phone of 800-327-band
(2263).  The band is metal and silver in color and I thought it was
210-96950 or it could be 96950-210 I'm not sure which format it would be
in.  Suggestions would be useful.  I pulled this info off of 33 photos that
I took from what I thought were all of the angles needed for all of the
numbers.  When I go through to the banding site, they say the band number
is not one on record.  I didn't try it in the second format though with the
210 at the end.
