finding transgene presence in the genome

In a review we were asked to show transgene presence in the genome of our organism (bird). The transgene is constructed of a human PGK gene plus a GFP sequence and has the length of ~600bp.

I was wondering what options we have to first find out if the transgene was integrated in the genome and second what tools can I use to try and locate the transgene insertion regions.

For the first point - would it be enough to map the genome against the human sequence to see if I can identify the hits against the hPGK?

Does anyone has experience with the TLA workflow? would this might be a ggood solution to identify the location of both ends of insertion?

thanks
