Dear Deb,
 
Thanks so much for reporting your whimbrel sighting  to bandedbirds.org. 
Resightings along the migratory route for these birds are  still few, so even 
getting a report without the code is valuable. Hope you can  get the code next 
time! I can tell you that the flag would have been red; I've  checked with the 
banders and there is no flag orange banding of whimbrel (yet).  Also you were 
able to spot the color of the auxliary band: O over metal. I  suspect the metal 
was on the upper leg under the orange. Based on this I can  tell you the bird 
was banded in Chiloe Island, Chile in December of 2008 (year  is based on the 
orange band).
 
Looking forward to receiving data from you in the  future!
 
Best,
 
Jeannine
