Means you are 1 lucky SOB...lol Seriously they band the ducks to keep records of migration longevity etc you send in the info off the band and they can gather "all" the info and will let you know "all" about your bird.

Still kicking myself for not checking my birds when I picked them up with you this morning.
Might had been mine I threw into our pile! Rats! But good on you and congratulations again. Ill be looking at duck legs for the rest of my life!
Great shooting, boys! Congrats on the bling, Open-sights.
so did you send the band info in, and what did they tell you, i am not a duck hunter eather,, what she said,, just wounder, does it tell you where the duck came from, or who taged it,,, thanks,,
Hiya Ncurrie, the band was on a released bird from the US somewhere, on the band there is an id # and a phone number to call. I called and answered 20 questions or so, where the bird was harvested, how I attained it, what type of bird, overall condition, etc as well as my information so they can send me a certificate - name, phone number, e-mail addy, etc. I have hunted with guys in Nebraska and in the mid west that had many many band they put on thier call lanyards, I have started the same thing, hope to see more in years to come.

Put the numbers in and give us the details!!
Wow that is pretty cool, thanks! I use to go duck hunting with my dad when he guided up at douglas lake, I don't remember any of them being banded, as it was mine and my sisters job to pluck them all, but I was pretty young then. It is something I would like to get into though, I love working with my dogs and love the taste of roast duck!
Cheers!
Congrats on the band! I think tomorrow morning I will be starring at their feet!
