Your donations will go towards Phase I of our new Winter Raptor Project. Over the coming years, we will be closely studying the habitat requirements of three species of raptors found in northeastern grasslands. This winter we plan to use advanced GPS tags to track the migration of the Long-eared Owls in real-time once they depart their winter homes for their northern breeding ranges. For the first time ever, we will be able to use high precision GPS technology to study migration routes, timing, and origins of our winter Long-eared Owls. The miniaturized GPS tags needed to track these owls cost approximately $1,800 per unit.
