How can we know that the birds we see in the Sought in the winter are the same ones that come north in the
spring? Once John J. Audubon, a bird lover, wondered about this. Every year he watched a pair of little phoebes
nesting in the same place. He wondered if they were the same birds. He decided to put tiny silver bands on their
legs. The next spring back came the birds with the bands to the very same place. Back came the young birds to
build their nests on the walls of farm buildings in the neighborhood. The phoebe, it was learned, wintered
wherever it was warm enough to find flies. In summer, phoebes could be seen from Georgia to Canada; in
winter, anywhere from Georgia to Florida and Mexico. The phoebe was the first kind of bird to be banded, and
Mr. Audubon was the first birdbander. Today there are hundreds of birdbanders all over America. These
peoples band all kinds of birds.
The government of the United States has a special birdbanding department which makes all the birdbands. The
bands do not hurt the birds, as they are made of aluminum and are very light. They come in different sizes for
different size birds. Each band has a special number. Any one who finds a dead bird with a band on its legs is
asked to send the band to the Fish and Wildlife Service in Washington with a note telling where and when the
bird was found. In this way naturalists add to their knowledge of the habits and needs of birds.
