Good
News from the Nesting Grounds
Sara
reports: "The first nest of #402 & 46-07
DAR and the renest of #403 & 309 are
still doing well and they’ve completed
almost two weeks of incubation! (Female 46-07 is the first DAR
bird
that
has been part of an active breeding pair to have a nest since
the DAR program's inception
in
2005.) Also, earlier this week #213 & 218 were
found to have renested. Finally, in late- breaking news
#212 & 419 were found to have
renested on Monday or Tuesday of this week. And as of May 12
Eva suspects that #311 & 312 might
have a nest too! This hasn’t been confirmed and
they’re in a remote area of the refuge, so it may take
a few days to confirm. I’m trying to schedule a flight
for early next week so we can look from the air. We’ll
continue to keep you posted on the latest news for the nesting
chart as well as each
bird's bio pages."
