This grant is aimed at funding Southern Sierra Research Station to study the movements and connectedness of Tri-colored Blackbirds in the Kern River Valley. The project involves tracking 30 TRBLs with Motus nanotags, using Yagi antenna for precise movements, and contributing feathers to the Bird Genoscape Project for genetic connectivity study. The research will provide valuable insights into TRBL behavior and habitat requirements.

| Description: | Recipient Southern Sierra Research Station will place new generation Motus nanotags on 30 Tri-colored Blackbirds (TRBL) captured at two different colony sites in the Kern River Valley to track TRBL movement using permanent Motus stations to be built and positioned this year. Recipient will also obtain more precise movements using a Yagi antenna and handheld telemetry receiver, and will take habitat measurements in breeding and foraging habitat. Feathers from captured TRBLs will be contributed to the Bird Genoscape Project for their TRBL genetic connectivity study. |
