Figure 2.
Connections between breeding and wintering location of flickers. Data are from northern flickers banded or carrying geolocators during the summer (between 15 May and 31 July) and recovered in winter (between 15 Oct and 1 March). Western populations (orange, circles) winter west of the Continental Divide, central populations (blue, triangles) winter in the south central USA and northeastern populations (yellow, squares) winter in the southeast. Breeding locations are indicated with filled symbols and non-breeding locations with open symbols. Riske Creek, the location of long-term banding and geolocator deployment is indicated by RC on the map. Polygons encompass approximately 90% of the points.
