Tom Wilson Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 You have to look very closely at these two photos to see what I'm talking about... These are not great photos, but I had to post them, because I doubt very much that this would ever happen again. Did you see them all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Duckslayer Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Quote: Sky Carp!!! Interesting, Corey Bechtold No no no Corey, them are Canada Geese, they are not Cormorants! Cormorants is what ya call sky carp! Tom, I guess they must have been banded as a family unit and they are still all together. Odds are you'll never see that again. Have a good one and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmaster1557 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 A guy I know shot two banded geese from the same flock just this fall. One was banded last summer in Iowa and the other was banded in 1997 in Louisinna. So that is pretty remarkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loc9fisher Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 my hunting partner and myself both shot our first banded geese last year. 2 geese came in, both with bands. when we received the information on the bands, they were both from illinois, banded on the same date, from the same flock, 3 years prior. and if i remember correctly, the numbers weren't very far off. last digit by 1 or 2 numbers. ahhhhhh memories.........loc9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckslayer Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 My buddies and I hunt close to a banding area, and earlier this fall, during the early goose season, they (I was not along on this hunt) shot eight geese, seven of which were banded. I thought that was pretty amazing too. Awesome picture Tom! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poutpro Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Had a flock fly over this past weekend that looked like that 4 of us shot 4 geese all of which were banded. We could have shot more, but after 4 we were at our 8 bird limit. I don't think I'll ever be a part of something like that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
