when both parents are banded 90% probability that the goslings are going to be banded as well unless the maternal lineage is of the lesser genus

Sleep deprivation is real, I went 3 weeks on like 5 hours of total sleep and damn near couldn't function. No, drugs were not involved.

Oh, it's more than an assumption. It's a scientific fact.

Get over the whole band thing. They are aluminum things worth very little. Some else touched the goose or duck...big deal.

Science never proves anything either. It just helps us along. This AT 50/50 law fully binds our feet from making any sort of egress near impossible. Shame on your axiom AT.

For me I'm happy just to get a duck or a goose. These just happen to be the only bands I've ever seen. To see 4 at once all together was pretty cool for me. I'm not hung up on bands.......yet :)
