Harlequin was born to cruise.

Speaking of cruising...obviously we haven't needed an updated map for Quest since April when she started nesting at Harlequin, although I would be interested to see how far she has strayed from the nest site in search of food & keeping the airspace clear.  Are we all set to resume tracking once Harlequin successfully fledges?

The accuracy and frequency of the data does not allow us to determine how far she has strayed from the nest site other than to say that we have not seen her more than 5 miles away. This doesn't mean that she has or hasn't gone that far or even farther.

The funding that GVAS received from NY years ago exclusively for satellite tracking ran out in March. The DEC took over paying for the tracking and has not said how long it will continue to do so. We will continue to track Quest this Fall as long as she is still wearing a working transmitter and the DEC is still paying for the tracking data.

FYI, we were paying about $1000 per month to track her. The DEC may pay a lower "bulk" price because it tracks so many animals.

Thanks.  Hopefully DEC will continue and, if not, will let us know so we can see if there are any other options available.

Just looked at the camera and Quest keeps looking up and around at something or someone!

has anyone been in touch with the Harlequin or CPF people?  I'm sure they are aware of it.
Maybe there is building maintenance being done ?  Poor Quest.
