Raptor Migration Studies FUNDECI/GAIA Raptor migration is a spectacle, involving tens of thousands of birds passing overhead in file, covering hundreds of miles a week in their daily journeys. How, where, and when raptors migrate is also of importance to scientists and conservation professionals. In Nicaragua, coming projects in wind-energy generation will need good data on raptor migration patterns to prevent unnecessary kills in the placement and operation of windmills. FUNDECI/GAIA has maintained raptor migration monitoring during the fall (southward) migration season since 2001. More recently, we have begun to observe the northward migration as well.
