Borealis

Bio Borealis

Borealis is a young female fledged in 2017 from the nest at the Municipal University of Newfoundland Botanical Garden in St. John's where last year we tagged the fledgling Leif Erikson as well as Daphne, an adult female who nests a few miles west of the Garden. Borealis' sister Aster and brother, Da Rock, also got transmitters this summer. She was tagged in an emergency 2nd trip of the summer up to Newfoundland after we discovered that Daphne had died and recovered that transmitter. Will this be my last trip to Newfoundland?
