Book Description
Excerpt from A Decade of Bird Banding in America: A Review Introduced specie8. - Investigations of the Biological Survey through the banding method are confined to native birds although exceptions are made when some special study of an introduced species is contemplated. The remarkable increase and spread of the European starling (sturnus vulgaris), since its introduction in New York City in 1890 and 1891, has been watched with much apprehension by students of birds. Because of the obvious potentialities of this bird for good or bad, the Survey early authorized and urged its cooperators to band them at every opportunity. As a gross result many thousands are now wearing numbered bands. Centers of starling banding activity have been Washington, D. C., and Columbus, Ohio. Dur ing the winters of 1927 - 28 and 1928 - 29, the author in company with other Washington ornithologists conducted a banding campaign that resulted in the marking of more than of these birds. The work was instituted under the direction of E. R. Kalmbach, of the Biological Survey, who (1932) has described how the banding Operations so discouraged the birds that they have not since resorted in large numbers to the church towers where so many of their fellows were ignominiously treated.

Book Description
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Bird Banding Laboratory (BBL) was established in 1920 after ratification of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act with the United Kingdom in 1918. During World War II, the BBL was moved from Washington, D.C., to what is now the USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center (PWRC). The BBL issues permits and bands to permittees to band birds, records bird band recoveries or encounters primarily through telephone and Internet reporting, and manages more than 72 million banding records and more than 4.5 million records of encounters using state-of-the-art technologies. Moreover, the BBL also issues bands and manages banding and encounter data for the Canadian Bird Banding Office (BBO). Each year approximately 1 million bands are shipped from the BBL to banders in the United States and Canada, and nearly 100,000 encounter reports are entered into the BBL systems. Banding data are essential for regulatory programs, especially migratory waterfowl harvest regulations.
