Herein, we will outline the technical advances made in satellite transmitter technology for raptors since the mid-1990s, followed by brief accounts of the progress in our research, and the different trapping techniques we used. We also examine the influences of weather on migration and discuss new insights into how migration and breeding success may influence one. Finally, we will discuss whether capture, fitting with a transmitter and the transmitter itself, have any negative influence on the bird.
