AI Summary
Scientists began tracking bird migration in 1899 by fitting birds with small ankle rings that carried identifiers. Researchers had to recapture the birds at different locations, leaving the routes between those points unknown. Modern GPS tags now enable researchers to observe every stage of a bird’s journey. This technology provides continuous, detailed data on migration paths that were previously inaccessible.
