Subject: [Tweeters] Marked Western Grebes - we need your help!

Hi All,



I?m a research assistant at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, BC, where
we are studying western grebe migratory connectivity and wintering
distribution using nasal marking and color marking (for many reasons,
satellite telemetry was not a feasible option). Last month, we captured
and marked grebes at breeding sites in Manitoba and Alberta. Now we are
looking to local birders along the Pacific coast to help us re-sight marked
grebes this winter, as birds should be arriving at wintering areas this
month. The link below is a flyer with pictures of what to look for, and
provides information on who to contact if you see a marked grebe. We need
your help!

Thanks for your time, and feel free to forward this message and the flyer
to anyone that you think may be interested.





Cheers,



Eric Palm
