An inventory of the birds of the San Francisco Bay area national parks was conducted during the breeding seasons of 1999 and 2000. Data was analyzed by stratified random sampling within the Point Reyes National Seashore and Golden Gate National Recreation. The goal of censusing approximately 80 to 90% of the landbird species breeding in the parks was assessed after the inventory was completed by analyzing the rate at which new species were added as additional points were established, and coverage was deemed sufficient. A variety of population parameters for each habitat were obtained with the point count data,including bird diversity, species richness, and relative abundance.
