Conservation and Tracking Swallow-tailed Kites and Short-tailed Hawks

Swallow-tailed Kites (Elanoides forficatus) and Short-tailed Hawks (Buteo brachyurus) are two of Florida's rarest and most special raptor species. The Avian Research and Conservation Institute (ARCI), based in Gainesville, FL, studies these raptors and tracks their movements and activity - including their presence at the Weedon Island Preserve! Join us for a presentation from Gina Kent of ARCI to hear about the latest conservation issues and status trends of these beautiful raptors.
