With the red knots around for only a few weeks, these researchers have a limited window for collecting data.

nice video
This is a very good picture of how rocket netting is done, and how biologists get information on populations of birds that move around so much, like the Red Knot. Kudos to the film team.
that was awsome!
While watching the outstanding episode on the Red Knots, I was startled to hear the name Larry Niles.
After watching with astonishment I realized that Larry was my former grade school and high school classmate from Southampton, Pa.
Way to go Larry!!! I know that your entire walking life you’ve been the outdoorsman and naturalist. I’m very happy to see that you’ve been so successful in fulfilling your life’s vocation…your dedication to the understanding and nurturing of nature and it’s habitat. Thank’s to you and your wife’s dedication.
Happy 40th anniversary Archbishop Wood “Class of ‘69″ and here’s to Mr. Sharpe’s biology class.
I just watched “Crash: A Tale of Two Species” on PBS tonight and was very impressed with the photography, narration, and science that was presented in the program. I did notice that it was available on the PBS site and looked it up and now I am excited to be able to see other features that I have missed in the past. Very Nice Work!
The Nature series is the best programming on television. PBS is to be commended for such wonderful work and the production crews for this and other similar programs are the very best in the business.
“The scenery photography was awsome.” “It was pretty interesting.” “I liked the bubble part.” “The netting part was cool.” “The baby crabs needed swimming lessons.”
How can I follow up and know what happens with the continuation of this story of the red knots…will there be another program about their fate? This was so interesting and beyond well done!!!
