The National Park Service Inventory and Monitoring Program provided funding for the development of this bird monitoring protocol and continues to fund monitoring of the resource in network parks. Numerous NPS personnel and volunteers have contributed in-kind support to the development of this protocol and continue to assist with annual surveys. This protocol in an earlier version (Version 1.0) benefited from comments by Dr. John Sauer (USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center), Dr. Rich Camp (USGS Pacific Island Ecosystems Research Center) and Dr. Rodney Siegel (Institute for Bird Populations). In 2008, the protocol was revised (Version 2.0) to reflect the network’s expansion of its bird monitoring efforts into additional parks and the turning over of Agate Fossil Beds National Monument, Nebraska, to the Northern Great Plains Inventory and Monitoring Network.
