    • Streamside Bird Monitoring Data in Eastern Rivers and Mountains Network Parks (2011-2025) Data Package

    Metadata Updated: August 23, 2025

    This data package contains records and metadata of avian point count data that were collected in six National Park Service units as part of the Eastern Rivers and Mountains Network Streamside Bird Monitoring Protocol. Data were collected between 2011 and 2025. The point counts were conducted by paid technicians during May and June of the inclusive years. Multiple sites per park were sampled each year and each site consisted of 3 point count stations. Sites were typically sampled four times each year. During point counts, the following information for each individual bird detected was recorded: 1) species identity, 2) type of detection (e.g., song, calls or chips, visual), 3) the distance band of first detection (≤ 50 m, 51 – 75 m, or > 75 m of the point count station), 4) each 1 min interval the bird was detected, 5) if the bird was a juvenile, and 6) if the bird was flying over the canopy at the time of detection. Point count length was 10 minutes. The streamside bird monitoring protocol consists of a narrative, standard operating procedures, and a quality assurance plan that outline the rationale, objectives, sampling design, data quality evaluation, and other specific aspects of the monitoring protocol.
