“…The d 2 H values ranged from À178% to À76% for blackpolls and from À112% to À57% for vireos, with lower d 2 H values indicating a more northern/western breeding area and, thus, a greater distance traveled to the capture site. Based on established feather isoscapes (Bowen et al 2005, Hobson et al 2014, these d 2 H values indicate likely breeding origins ranging from the eastern Maritime provinces for both species to as far away as northwestern Canada and possibly Alaska for blackpolls, and as far west as central Quebec, western Ontario, and southeastern Manitoba for vireos. We were unable to calculate movement rate, distance of sustained migratory flights, or flight distance per stop for 6 blackpolls and 4 vireos not re-detected beyond the capture site.…”
