Hello TAS, I've mentioned my research a few times on the board, but it's finally upon us! I am a PhD student at FIU who grew up here in Miami going on the bird walks. I'm conducting my thesis research on how Red-shouldered Hawks are adapting to urbanization in South Florida. Beginning the first week of January, I'll be beginning my playback surveys to find nests. My website is www.soflraptorstudy.org. There you can see a map of my study area, my calendar for the upcoming season, and my contact information. I'm going to need all the help I can get to find nests, monitor them, set up nest cameras, and trap and tag hawks. Let me know if you know of any nests that aren't on my radar of if you'd like to participate! Thanks so much!
