Shot this off of a drake pinny last day of the season i tried reporting it and they said it is not there format and they gave me a number where i left a voicemail at. The band says KANKYOSHO TOKYO JAPAN, Could this pinny be from japan?

PM sent to you.  This bird is part of a research project, and the Japanese government (environmental agency) would like to record the data.  I can help you.

Please tell us more PD.

Pianoman,

The Japanese government has been banding birds since 1924, and the environmental agency (equivalent to our EPA, but toothless) is currently in charge.  They publish an annual report on banding, which can be found here (much of it in English):
http://www.biodic.go.jp/banding/pdf/banding_h24.pdf
There is an interesting chart (V-3-1), which shows the longevity records for banded/captured birds--the record is for a Storm Petrel, which was captured 30 years after banding.

The agency's website has an interesting page devoted to tracking Pintails:
http://www.env.go.jp/nature/dobutsu/bird_flu/migratory/dabbler.html
Look at the Google map results for migrating Pintails from the Saitama release site, the blue map, Slide 2.

You can see the majority of Pintails migrate to the summertime breeding grounds in far eastern Siberia (Russia), including Kamchatka.  The tracking records do not show Pintails moving to the Alaskan mainland.  Yet the bird in question here clearly made its way clockwise up to Alaska, spent the summer there, and upon returning to the warmer wintering grounds made a left turn when he should have turned right, and came down the eastern Pacific coastline to Washington.  Talk about making a wrong turn!

Good on you MC37493  for sharing this data with the agency!

Thanks pd. That's certainly a once-in-a-lifetime band. Awesome.
