Abstract
Evidence suggests that wintering populations of long-tailed ducks along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts are in decline, but little is known about wintering populations on Lake Michigan. Researchers seek answers to basic questions regarding habitat use and migration patterns (temporal and spatial) of long-tailed ducks that winter on Lake Michigan, by using surgically implanted satellite transmitters. The processes of locating the birds, capturing and implanting satellite transmitters, and interpreting the results were challenging, and efforts relied on dedicated researchers, veterinarians, resource managers, and many volunteers.
