Mountain Bluebird Geolocators

Dr. Kevin Fraser (University of Manitoba) and Ellis Bird Farm made science history by being the first to deploy geolocators on 20 MOBL and the first to attach RFID tags to a full family of MOBL. The project took place the first week of June 2014 on Brian Bigg’s Lousana-area bluebird trail.

Thanks to Carol Patterson for creating a video highlighting this groundbreaking research.
