Year-Round Movements of Rough-legged Hawks Wintering in Indiana

From 2021-2022, six GPS transmitters were attached to wintering Rough-legged Hawks in Indiana. Many of these transmitters have provided multiple years of full annual cycle movements. Join Neil Paprocki as he shares insights on the year-round movements of Rough-legged Hawks wintering in the Hoosier state, and how these six birds fit into the broader Rough-legged Hawk Project that has tracked nearly 200 hawks throughout North America.

Neil Paprocki recently completed his Ph.D. at the University of Idaho studying differential migration in birds. Neil has been a professional ornithologist for 17 years and has been working with Rough-legged Hawks for nearly 15 years.
