E/30 Mac turned up at Red Wing Grain this morning! He was courting a black/blue banded female, but I couldn't quite read her band number.

Good to see Mac back! 

Is 7/X a partial reading on a female?

Got it! She's Maggie 79/X, a 2020 hatch from Effigy Mounds National Monument. The human we named her after will be so pleased!
