Golden-winged Warbler Recaptured!

Golden-winged Warbler
Geolocator tag recaptured from a Golden-winged Warbler by Audubon Vermont conservation staff.

It's all a buzz!!! Biologists Margaret Fowle and Mark LaBarr have recaptured the first Golden-winged Warbler of the season. For the past year, this bird carried a small transmitter called a geolocator that has been collecting data about his migration routes and wintering grounds. Mark and Margaret will be out and about trying to recapture more geo-tagged birds in the Champlain Valley this spring in hopes of learning more about Vermont's population and its needs for conservation. Stay tuned for what we find out, and in the meantime, visit http://vt.audubon.org/gwwa for more information.
