Two movements of note were detected in 1994. Two Harlequins marked on McDonald 

 Creek, Glacier National Park were recaptured or relocated along the southeastern coast of 

 Vancouver Island in August 1994. On 1 1 August 1994 a male (765-27577), marked as juvenile 

 exactly two years earlier, was captured at Shelter Point on the coast south of the Cambell River. 

 The bird was molting but appeared healthy and the following measurements were taken: weight: 

 620 g; wing: 115 mm; tarsus: 37.1 mm; culmen (ml): 27.4 mm; Molt 2b. One white plastic leg 

 band was missing and the two original color bands remaining were faded and removed. Green 

 plastic band with white alpha-numeric 7G was placed on the right leg (metal band remained on 

 left). On 6 August 1994, a male (755-76063), marked as an adult male 7 May 1993, was 

 captured at Heron Rocks, Hornby Island, Straits of Georgia; this male was captured at the same 

 location 4 Aug 1993 (Reichel and Center 1994). The bird appeared healthy and the following 

 measurements were taken: weight: 640 g; wing: 115 mm; tarsus: 37.8 mm; culmen (ml): 27.6
