It has been an exciting Saturday! The #ProjectMonarch story has been featured twice on @npr.org today - once during the #BBCWeekend newscast this morning, and once during #WaitWaitDontTellMe during the Limerick Challenge! Here's a sick visualization by #CapeMayArtsAndScienceCenter 's Sean Burcher!

How do you track an animal that weighs 0.5g? With #WildlifeTech that weighs almost nothing at all. The #BlūMorpho is the smallest wildlife transmitter ever deployed on a #MonarchButterfly built in Cape May, NJ. Tiny tag, huge leap for migration science. #ScienceInMotion #WildlifeConservation

A scientific milestone once considered impossible. Huge gratitude to all of our partners from 2023 to today: #CMPASC, #MotusWTS, @birdscanada.bsky.social, @xercessociety.bsky.social and the incredible community of researchers who made this dream real. We've only just begun! 🦋 (Article @nytimes.com)

The Xerces Society is made up of some of the best invertebrate researchers and conservationists. We are so excited to work with them whenever we can- and so glad that they are an integral part of the #ProjectMonarch Collaboration!

Today we, along with over 20 amazing collaborators, made history- but we've only just begun! Check out the NYT article and click the link within to see more about the #ProjectMonarch Collaboration. #monarchscience #conservationscience #wildlifetracking

From rain to starlight; an engaging plenary to a night in the Costa Rican highlands with Ernesto Carman and the Unspotted Saw-whet Owl. Science, persistence, and conservation at their best. We're all excited for what’s ahead. #RRF2025 #RaptorResearch #WildlifeTech #CostaRica 🦉🪶🇨🇷

Hawks, swifts & hummers—Costa Rica in motion. Broad-winged Hawks lifting with 100s of White-collared Swifts; Volcano, Scintillant & Lesser Violetears jousting over flowers near Poás. Back in San José for the #RRF2025 conference and so stoked! #BirdMigration #CostaRica

Heading to Costa Rica for #RRF2025! Had to leave Cape May at 2:30am to stay ahead of the nor’easter bearing down on the region. Fingers crossed we get out of Newark and find a way around this storm! #RaptorConservation #RaptorResearch #BirbsRule #Ornithology #PuraVida

In Costa Rica for the Raptor Research Foundation conference 🇨🇷 and already speechless — Mike & Trish joined the Talamanca Hawk Watch where 2–4 K raptors ride each thermal south. Migration, family, and science all in one view. #RRF2025 #RaptorMigration #CostaRica #WildlifeTech

Our VP of Global Market Development was across the pond contributing to a special symposium on European #MotusWTS last week during the @eounion.bsky.social ‘s #EOU2025 Congress.

Richard Holland presenting in the Migration I session, on how birds use magnetic cues associated with direction finding to locate their position; FASCINATING! #EOU2025 #Bangor #Wales

Will Cresswell delivers an excellent plenary talk at the 15th European Ornithologists' Congress in Bangor, Wales #EOU2025. Oh and he's a bang-on doppelgänger for Edward Norton.

Some excellent talks about the effect of light pollution on birds at #EOU2025 European Ornithologists' Congress in Bangor, Wales.

Marc Illa presenting at the 2025 Migrant Landbird Study Group meeting, prior to the 15th European Ornithologists' Congress, in Bangor, Wales. Marc was in Cape May back in 2018, the inaugural year of the Cape May Stopover Project, and it's great to see what he has been up to. #EOU2025

Since 2012, we've tracked 250+ bald eagles (146 as nestlings)! One female, originally caught in OK and now grown up and nesting in KS, is now heading north. In winter, eagles feed on gut piles, risking lead poisoning from ammo. Hunters can help by switching to lead-free. #BaldEagle #Conservation

Today CTT's Sean Burcher and colleagues will reveal never before seen data on Monarch migration- and how YOU can be part of history!!! Check it out today on this free webinar: secure.qgiv.com/for/monarchc...

@celltracktech.bsky.social 's VP of Sales, Marketing and Customer Support spent the early morning hours banding Purple Martins at the Cape May Point State Park. "We're still using traditional bands and field-readable auxiliary markers, but next year I hope to use some of the BlūSeries tags!" -David

Happy Canada Day 🇨🇦 to neighbors to the north. Here's a Kirtland's Warbler, one of the many species who know no borders, and could care less about political flexing. He flexes only to find a mate and continue the lineage of the Kirtland's Warblers that came before him...

You saw it here first! We've got our new BlūBat 2.4GHz digitally-coded-tag now in a leg band form factor for simple deployment on any birds that can take a size 5 or greater! In-house designed chip antenna means no external whip to get in the way... celltracktech.com/products/ctt...

Our COO Casey Halverson is at #WWDC25 exploring ways Apple tech can help grow CTT's conservation products 🌍📡 Big things ahead for wildlife tracking! 🐦🦭 #ConservationTech #AppleEvent #WWDC #Telemetry #WildlifeTech

Check out the awesome work our friends in Venezuela have been up to tracking these wonderful and enigmatic Greater White-collared Swifts! www.instagram.com/reel/DKfvLPd...

Happy #WorldWildlifeDay! Our VP of Global Market Development has had coyotes in his yard lately, and last week caught a bit of their antics on his trail cam...check out this couple! Is love in the air? It sure looked like something was about to happen!! ❤️

❤️🦅 A Love Story in Conservation! This #ValentinesDay, we’re celebrating Dr. Trish Miller & Mike Lanzone, whose #GoldenEagle #conservation work with the Maine Dept. of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife & Eastern Golden Eagle Working Group was featured on NPR! 🎧 npr.org/2025/02/14/nx-s1-5271533

Early-career Latin American and Caribbean researchers- be sure to check out these great grant opportunities being offered by AOS!!

Member of the Cape May diaspora, Andrew Dreelin, will be presenting some excellent work on how birds eavesdrop to learn about presence of predators! Check out this awesome and free presentation on February 10th!!
