Project AVIFAUNA studies the presence of insects on Spitsbergen which have arrived here by hitch hiking on migratory birds. I am involved to sample barnacle geese. I catch incubating females from their nest with a long fishing rod and a small lasso at the end. In this movie you see two successful and one unsuccessful attempt. |
