In this week's conversation, we speak with Ph.D. Student Shelly Eshleman about the incredible journey migrating birds take every year. Shelly talks about her ongoing research and her work at Willistown Conservation Trust tracking migrating birds along the East Coast of the United States with the MOTUS Avian system. We get a peek into the long and sometimes dangerous journey of migrating birds, and the little backpacks they take along the way.
