This grant is for the critical purpose of supporting conservation efforts detailed in the Conservation Plan for the Tricolored Blackbird (Agelaius tricolor). The primary objective of this funding is to facilitate extensive detection and ongoing monitoring of Tricolored Blackbird colonies. These vital activities are scheduled for the spring and summer seasons, specifically targeting the key habitats within the San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys across California. A crucial secondary objective of this grant involves the color banding of a significant number of individual Tricolored Blackbirds. This banding will provide invaluable data for understanding population dynamics, migration patterns, and overall bird health, thereby contributing significantly to the long-term protection and recovery of this species.
