Abstract

We include the project justification and objectives for the entire 3-year research endeavor, and provide a summary of what was accomplished during, and some preliminary results from, the third year. We are continuing to enter and analyze data from our bird surveys (point counts) and our nest searching and monitoring efforts (from both the period 1993-1995 and 2010-2012), and we will update the USFWS with the results of new and additional analyses as we complete them. The size and scope of this database are such that we anticipate the publication of several manuscripts from it in the next 3 years and will send copies of those to the USFWS as they become available
