This blog was started to keep you informed about movement of 11 tagged Svalbard breeding pink-footed geese. The project was launched in Denmark in March 2011. The aim of the tracking is to get detailed knowledge about migration, diurnal rhythm, behaviour and habitat choice of pink footed geese.
The project is part of a larger international program with the overall aim to develop the scientific basis for an adaptive flyway management for the Svalbard population of pink-footed geese
Johnny decided not to breed on Bird Island. He took 'classical' route and set off to Svalbard 5th of June. This is 2-3 weeks later than other tagged geese so hopefully he can still find an empty patch to set up the nest. Good luck boy!!!
