Is that ALL the info on the bands? Have you captured the bird?
Are you sure the band has FIS and not FSI??

It looks like the first 10 numbers is a phone number. Why don't you try calling it.

I did reach the owner as he said it is a racing bird. My husband is going to meet him to give him the bird. I am not familiar with pigeons or racing pigeons but I loves animals and knew we had to do something. I am glad I found this website. All of you were a great help. Thanks

GLAD to hear such positive news. I wish all lost homers had "happily EVER" endings with their owners.
