Just over a week of satellite tracking one Clark’s nutcracker. (I can collect fascinating data in this short amount of time. I’ve had a bird move ~220 mi north in under a week!)
Three weeks of tracking one Clark’s nutcracker. (Amazing how many times a bird could crisscross the Tetons in this time.)
Six weeks of tracking one Clark’s nutcracker. (In six weeks, a bird could finish the bulk of its autumn seed harvest.)
Three months of tracking one Clark’s nutcracker. (In three months during the spring, a bird could build a nest, raise young, and feed fledglings for their first few weeks out of the nest.)
Seven months of tracking one Clark’s nutcracker. (That's the breeding season, summer, and the autumn harvest.) Or, thinking about this another way: this would also fund one month tracking all seven nutcrackers!
Fund two birds with one gift. A gift at this level allows me to track two birds for a full year.
