FINDING THE LITTLE BLUE SQUARE PICTURES ON GOOGLE EARTH

For those of you that may not know this, you can go online to our FRG website and click on the Southern Cross Peregrine Project. Select the TRACKING MAPS and select a particular falcon on the list, for example choose "ISLAND GIRL".If you then right click on any of her location points, you will get a window with lots of information, including her latitude and longitude. If you highlight these lat./long. coordinates (including the minus signs if they are there) and click above on EDIT and then COPY, you can then bring up Google Earth and paste these coordinates into the GE location box at the top left. Once you have imported these coordinates into Google Earth, you can click on the adjacent search button GE will take you directly to that location. Scroll out a bit and find the little blue photo squares (if there are any in that location) and click on them to see the surrounding terrain. This may sound complicated but it is really fairly simple and adds alot to the migration experience.
