Been to Buttonwillow -- the plant is more attractive than the town. I have tried growing it here, but it has never done well, for whatever reason.

Canal side - didn't notice the band until processing. Reported it.

This bird was banded on 5/8/2014 by the University of Florida when it was to young to fly per the U.S. Geological Survey.
