British Indian Ocean territory (BIOT), during 03 – 24 July 2018. The expedition to NI was combined with research on Diego Garcia (DG); but due to the unique nature of the NI phase, a specific report has been produced.
Preliminary results suggest that the majority of individuals do not leave the MPA while breeding although one breeding RFB did leave the MPA during a foraging trip. In addition, long-term tracking devices were recovered from 13 breeding and non-breeding adults, providing new information about the movements of adult RFB during the non-breeding
The primary objectives of the trip were to document the year round biology and foraging ecology of breeding Red-footed Boobies (RFB) at Barton Point Nature Reserve; to document the distribution of non-breeding RFBs from the colony on Diego Garcia and, to establish the status and distribution of breeding RFB on DG.
