Breeding and wintering sites of geolocator-tagged Pacific black brant (Branta bernicla nigricans) in North America. Brant were tagged with geolocators at a subarctic breeding site (Tutakoke River, Yukon Kuskokwim Delta National Wildlife Refuge; 61.3° N, 165.6° W) and an Arctic breeding site (Colville River Delta; 70.42° N, 150.38° W) in Alaska, USA. The size of circles indicates the total number of geolocator-tagged brant that were tracked to each wintering site (n = 63). The colors of the pie-chart slices indicate the proportion of geolocator-tagged birds from each breeding location. Black wintering site points indicate that no birds with geolocators were present for the winter period (WA = Washington, BC = British Columbia, CA = California, Mexico = Baja California, Mexico)
