Message extracted from recent e-mail correspondence dated 23 May 2003 for your reference: Quote" Dear Dr. Kim, Glad to know the Black-faced Spoonbill banded in Taiwan was back in the breeding ground. As the color combination of the (left?) leg of this bird is Red-Yellow, it should be T12. Would be helpful if you could see the number on the blue band (on the right leg). It was a young bird banded at Tsangwen Estuary, Taiwan on 9 January 1999. If the bird is T12 it shouldn't have a PTT on its back. I hope this is useful to you. Best wishes to your study.
