Thank you for helping this bird.

If this is a racing pigeon Besides the #s there should be probably two sets of letters. I am guessing a pair of letters would be either AU (American Union)or IF (International Federation). The other letters should appear infront of the #s. These letters will indicate the club or owner. Please give us all marking on the band and we will help you find the owner.
