The Data Are Back! In summer 2016, Audubon biologists placed geolocator backpacks on Blue and Golden-winged Warblers in the Champlain Valley. Light level geolocators allow biologists to track birds throughout their migration. In summer 2017, they recaptured some of these birds after a full season of migration . Now, one year later the data have been downloaded and interpreted and we’ll get to hear first-hand what these elusive warblers have been up to.

Join Audubon Vermont’s Mark LaBarr and Margaret Fowle for a discussion of migration and wintering locations of Golden and Blue-winged warblers fitted with geolocators in the Champlain Valley.
