RCSM - totaux quotidiens estimés: Oak Hammock Marsh

À propos

Daily counts of birds banded, incidentally observed during standard observation and a composite Daily Estimated Total consisting of the best estimate for each species of unduplicated number of individuals detected within the official count area during the standardized operation period. Daily effort data are included for most years.

Saison(s) et fréquence

Standardized coverage five days per week, from second week of July through end of September.

Région géographique couverte

Located in southern Manitoba (50.17, -97.13). Migrants at the site originate primarily from breeding range in MB and ON, but isotopic studies indicate that a portion of individuals of some species come from more western breeding range.

Principales espèces couvertes

Captures are primarily small passerines, but all species observed are recorded.

Objectifs

Contribute to the Canadian Migration Monitoring Network (https://www.birdscanada.org/bird-science/canadian-migration-monitoring-network-cmmn) by conducting standardized daily migration season counts and collecting ancillary data on migration ecology for use in long-term population and biological monitoring of Canada’s bird species.
