Installing tracking device

Adding a radio transmitter to the wing, it will fall off when the bird moults. We can tell when dottie is in the area and follow her movements, Thanks to The New York State Endangered Species Program.

 

This was really reassuring, we could tell when she was near by and she visited us often when she was first released.
