BirdCast Migration Dashboard is back online for fall migration. Starting Friday, August 1, the site will report daily, radar-based measurements of nocturnal bird migration across every state and county in the contiguous U.S., including estimates of the total number of birds migrating, their directions, speeds, and altitudes. If you’re in the lower 48 states, check it out, and see how much activity is going on over your part of the country.
BirdCast Migration Dashboard uses weather surveillance radar to gather information of bird movements, and is a collaboration between The Cornell Lab, Colorado State University, and University of Massachusetts Amherst. Click here to learn more.
