Adopt Me!

Background

Ocean Jr., offspring of Ocean and Moana, was spotted exactly one mile away from where he was raised. He quickly found a burrow site and mate of his own and already produced one chick! He was banded as a fledgling with our code OX- (orange over metal) on August 6, 2022. On March 7, 2023, we were able to recapture him and give him his adult combination for a unique ID.
