Please note: The maps below reflect data processed up to August 2011, and will be updated again soon. For locational information between August 2011 and the present, please see our study page on Movebank. Please note: While new locations will continually be imported to Movebank via a livefeed from Argos (approximately every 6 hours), and automatically filtered (using the Douglas Argos Filter) upon import, they have not been manually checked for erroneous locations, which can still be present in the dataset post-filtering. As such, please refer to the maps below for the most accurate migration route information.

A) Cohort summary maps: illustrate migration routes between molting and wintering, wintering and breeding, or breeding and molting sites.

The migration data are complete to the end of August 2011; the current fate of the bird/transmitter (i.e., dead or still transmitting) is indicated.
