The PGC is trying to capture migrating female scaup to  equip them with GPS
telemetry harnesses as part of a study to determine  migration and breeding
habits of these eastern scaup.

Subject:  [PABIRDS] Harlequin Duck captured

I just received a message from a  person who said that she saw the
Harlequin Duck in one of the cage traps set  on Presque Isle S.P. this afternoon.  I
believe these traps are set by  the Pennsylvania Game Commission as a
waterfowl study program.

If  anyone from the PGC gets this message perhaps they could inform the
listserve  as to what this survey is about.

Thanks,
