According to the Knight-Ridder News Service, the inscription on the
metal bands used by the U.S. Department of the Interior to tag
migratory birds has been changed. The bands used to bear the address of
the Washington Biological Survey, abbreviated, "Wash. Biol. Surv."
until the agency received the following letter from an Arkansas camper:
"Dear Sirs: While camping last week I shot one of your birds. I think
it was a crow. I followed the cooking instructions on the leg tag and I
want to tell you it was horrible."
