Title
Migration Examples from the Eastern Woodcock Migration Research Cooperative [U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service]
Description
This feature service is for a web map that includes stopover locations from several migrating woodcock, collected as GPS point data by the Eastern Woodcock Migration Research Cooperative. Each layer shows the total points transmitted by a single migrating bird, and layer names indicates the state where the individual was initially captured and outfitted with a transmitter. This StoryMap describes how decades of Wildlife Restoration funding helped study, monitor and manage woodcock across all parts of its range. It was developed for the USFWS Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Program's "Partner with a Payer" initiative using spatial data from the Eastern Woodcock Migration Research Cooperative and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources . The story covers population surveys, migration tracking, habitat restoration, and other aspects of woodcock research and management conducted with Wildlife Restoration funding.
