Abstract

This article focuses on the use of geolocators to track five Veeries for one annual cycle. It explains the method used in attaching geolocator units to 24 Veeries using a Rappole-Tipton leg-loop. The study results showed that 16 Veeries were relocated at the study site in 2010 out of the 24 that received geolocators in 2009. From only five Veeries, the study documented three different migratory routes between South and North America and three different routes from the Gulf Coast to Delaware.
