All birds were genetically sexed. RELEASE SITE: Site 1 at Beecroft peninsula. Translocation event took place between late March and early May. Specific date not known and each of 3 releases at this site lists a different date to denote. More specific information is unavailable due to copyright of primary source. All reintroduced birds were radio-tracked for up to 34 days after release, to allow estimation of initialdispersal distanced and mortality. Beyond this, transect surveys and birds calls were played to monitor. Over all 3 releases, male bristlebirds dispersed further than females. Evidence of social behavior and breeding was observed. 5 deaths were recorded during the first two days after this release event.
