Island of Hawaii, 'Io Hawaiian hawk GPS tracking locations, 2019-2020

Description

We tracked the movement of 15 ‘Io, or Hawaiian Hawks (Buteo solitarius) from 2019-2021. Individuals were tracked for up to 18 months across a diverse landscape on the eastern side of the Island of Hawai'i. GPS-GSM (global positioning system location with global system of mobile communications) tracking tags were placed on each bird, with locations obtained every 1 hour during diurnal hours, and every 3 hours during nocturnal hours, with two birds having locations obtained every 2 hours as a result of tag power issues. A total of 111,320 locations were obtained.
