Our birds are continuing to push north, with several more moving into the Midwest (Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio), and an additional bird moving into both West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Males, females, young and adult birds are all on their way to their breeding grounds, making moves of hundreds of kilometers between stopover locations. We seem to have about equal numbers of birds moving towards Central and Eastern Management Regions, though some are making movements directly east rather than north/northeast (e.g. LA-2024-58’s recent movement, the start of LA-2024-53’s migration).
