The 'Cuckoo-Finder' in Action!
A few of the cuckoos that we fitted with radio transmitters down near Blythe have gone missing, so this morning, Anna and I (Alex Lamoreaux) drove around to all of our cuckoo sites to search for them using our car-mounted radio-receiver. This 'Cuckoo-Finder', as we call it, has two yagi antennas, that work in unison to be able to pick up a cuckoo's radio telemetry unit (transmitter) from quite a distance away. Below is a photo of the 'Cuckoo-Finder' in action!
