Slater GL. 2001. Avian Restoration in Everglades National Park: Final Report
This paper reports on the four-year reintroduction program for Brown-headed and Eastern Bluebirds. Specific research topics are addressed in the following, individual chapters: Chatptcr Two discusses translocation methodologies and factors related to success; Chapter Three discusses the population demographics of the two reintroduced species during establishment and evaluates the success of the project; and Chapter Four investigates the response and resiliency of Brown-headed Nuthatch and Eastern Bluebird donor populations in BCNP during removals. In an appendix, I report on: 1) the long-term point-count monitoring program for nuthatches and bluebirds and other pineland bird species in Long Pine Key.
