The purpose also is to create and promote research that will be disseminated tothe scientific community and preserve partners. The project involves the following:1. Develop a survey protocol/method (involves coordinating with park staff, partner staff, and other researchers to ensure comparable/transferable data).2. Survey birds during fall migration, winter season, and spring migration.3. Develop report detailing bird species encountered, habitat use, and management suggestions.
