Indiana: Urban Geese Get Bling-Bling

In the past IN Canada geese sported silver-colored bands around their legs, but now the migrators will wear larger, plastic bands in either orange or white. The new brightly colored bands are much larger than the aluminum variety and much more noticeable—more bling-bling you could say. The different colored bands will help biologists better track relocated geese, which were removed from urban areas. The new bands will help decide whether these relocations really work.

Interesting little tidbit. I like the "bling, bling" reference as well.
