Notes: What's This?
MONITORED BY: Used taped calls and training to lure birds in for counts, and then gave them food (6 times total). # SURVIVED: are lower bounds- there are few sightings. # RETURNED: robins have strong homing instinct and are likely to return when capture location is so close. Translocating juvenile robins may help with this. CAPTURE DATES: April 8-11, releases April 9-12.
