Footnotes:
(b) Frigatebirds and Northern Hawk-Owl require 7A or 7B
short due to the short tarsus length.
(c)Other Hybrid Ducks require band sizes worn by all species
of ducks; bander determines appropriate size for each bird.
(o) 7B for some coastal birds.
(p) Formerly Oldsquaw.
(v)For all hybrid codes the suspected parentage (or parent
if only one is obvious) must be recorded as a remark on the banding schedules
(e.g. Mallard x Pintail(?); BWTE x NOSH; MYWA x ?; etc.)
(y)Please advise of correct band size
