Croom: The life of one Swallow-tailed Kite

05/02/2013

For over a decade, ARCI has been at the forefront of tracking birds through cuttine-edge technologies. Documenting birds’ movements allows scientists to better understand their behavior and make well-informed conservation decisions. But beyond the data points lies a story that fascinates and inspires. We invite you to share this story as we follow the life of one Swallow-tailed Kite tagged near the Croom tract of the Withlacoochee State Forest in central Florida—a bird that we have followed for over 20,000 miles during the last two years.

Who is Croom? Stay tuned to find out!
