We chose 45 g solar Argos/GPS tags by Microwave Telemetry. GPS gives us very precise locations and data can be transmitted through Argos so we can almost track our geese live. Additionally tags are equipped with UHF so we can follow the birds if we are close by. Between 29.03 and 31.05 tags were set to obtain 19 uplinks per day and outside this period - 12 uplinks to save the batteries. The tags were attached by elastic band so the harness can adjust its shape when the goose is getting/loosing weight.
