Connecticut Audbon Society

Osprey Map

Ospreys that nested last year in Connecticut, Rhode Island and nearby islands are starting to return from South and Central America. Two researchers, Rob Bierregaard and Paul Spitzer, placed transmitters on them and you can track their progress on this map. It contains a lot of data and can take 10 seconds or more to load.

We copied the following key directly from their website, which is where the links will take you:

Artoo (light blue), 2013 NH teenager.

Belle (yellow), Martha’s Vineyard female.

Charlie (pink), Fishers Island male.

Crabby (red), Chesapeake female.

DJ (), Martha’s Vineyard male.

Donovan (bright green) NH adult male.

Edwin (white) Fishers Island adult male.

Flow (light blue) Essex Co. MA, juvenile male.

Gerry () Connecticut River adult male.

Nick (gray) Chesapeake Bay male.

North Fork Bob (burgundy), Long Island male.

Roger Tory (), CT male.

Ron (orange), DC male.

Snowy (gold) Martha’s Vineyard, MA, female.

Uncas () CT River male.

Woody (dark blue) Chesapeake Bay male.

Notes: I think I’ve got the colors right now, although they may show up differently on different computers.
