Have They Been Named?

[DoggyMom]

Have he eyas been named yet? If so, what are their names? If not, when will they be named, who picks the names, and is there a system or tradition or such for selecting names?

[Dumpsterkitty]

No names yet.  There is a very long tradition on choosing names-don't have time to hunt the details right now.  Traditionally, they've gotten their names at banding-the date has not been announced yet.

We're working on plans for banding day and eyas naming.  We should be making an announcement sometime after the Memorial Day holiday.

I have a question about banding day.  I keep wanting to say "last year", but I know it was 2008;  I viewed all the banding day activities on-line.   I would love to attend the banding day since I live close by and school will be out.  Is it possible to attend, or is it limited to invitees etc. ?

[DoggyMom]

That's a good question. I'd suggest you post it as its own topic as people might not find it here given the topic title and there are probably others who would be interested.

Those details will be covered in our forthcoming Banding Day announcement.
