10-24-11-She has a long history which is explained below

This bird was originally banded in the Briggsvile study area on September 27, 1993. She at that time was at least 3 years old because she had a colt with her when she was banded. She and her mate, who was banded in 1995, have been together on territory since 1993 which makes them the longest standing pair on the same territory in the ICF study area. Including the colts banded with the adults in 1993, there have been 9 offsping produced by this pair, the last was in 2007 (2 colts)

Her mate is banded with #612 upper left leg and Metal over 1" green on right leg.
