Here’s an update from Allie on the Red-tailed Hawk they put the transmitter on last week at Hawk Ridge.
“It's been one week since we deployed our first satellite transmitter on an adult light morph "northern" Red-tailed Hawk! Since leaving Duluth, this bird has at least made it to around Hayward, Wisconsin. The bird's location was last registered on November 15th, so it's possible it's moved further south since then.
With that being said, it's possible this individual might not go too much further south to spend its winter. How far a bird migrates south can depend on how far north it is coming from. Knowing where this individual returns to for the breeding season is what we are really interested in. We are hypothesizing this bird came form northern Canada (perhaps Alberta). Wherever it goes for the summer, we are excited to find out!”
