Finals are over! Lets get some data! Continuing data collection Continuing methods with shorter run time Trials this time would go from 7-11am However we are keeping noise levels at a range on 65-70dB Continue Research before Thanksgiving break More research! Back in action after SACNAS. Good results from cameras. More optimistic about birds coming to seed trays. Habituating Resident Granivorous Birds to our Seed Trays. On the first evening (Saturday, 10.05.19) of the visit, we plan to deploy seed trays at our six sites to have the birds learn about them and accept them as a food source. No outside variables will be used such as noise/speakers that would alter their foraging behavior. Game cameras would be placed at each site to make sure that we are able to record the birds properly for the trials on the next day. Sunday 10.06.19 we will be doing predawn setup for our noise trials. At three of our sites, noise playbacks will start thirty minutes before sunrise and end two hours after the start point. Game cameras will be present at all the sites along with seed trays.
