Welcome to ThrasherQuest 2025!

Desert Thrasher populations are declining, and you can help us learn more about LeConte's & Bendire's Thrashers on their #Nevada stronghold on Avi Kwa Ame National Monument.

Head into the field in Quest of Thrashers as part of our new #communityscience program, and/or join in the Friends of Avi Kwa Ame fundraiser. THANK YOU for your support!

Through decades of monitoring we have learned that the upper El Dorado and Piute valleys in far southern #Nevada are a stronghold for Bendire’s Thrashers in NV and LeConte’s Thrashers in the world. #desertthrashers #conservation #birds 1/2

This spring, GBBO is partnering with the Arizona Game & Fish Department to attach satellite tags to #desertthrashers. We hope to find out, what happens to displaced thrashers after utility-size solar is constructed on their territories. If washes are left intact, will the thrashers still use them?

In 2023, DTWG partners captured and tagged the first LeConte’s Thrasher ever banded in #Nevada, the first in an ongoing study examining how these nonmigratory birds use the landscape at different times of year. #desertthrashers #banding #conservation
