KU Field Station is part of a worldwide effort to study and protect birds
Researchers at the Kansas Biological Survey are using technology to track migratory birds that pass through Lawrence. Both KU and K-State scientists are part of Motus, a worldwide effort to study and protect our feathered friends. Motus is a network of hundreds of tracking stations located around the world, but especially in North America. Sixteen are in Kansas, with more on the way. And they’re providing, for the first time, exact information on bird movement.
