UCSB SONGS Mitigation Monitoring: Wetland Survey - Bird Feeding Activity

These data describe annual estimates of shorebird bird feeding activity, measured as the percentage of birds observed feeding, collected as part of the SONGS San Dieguito Wetland Restoration mitigation monitoring program designed to evaluate compliance of the restoration project with conditions of the SONGS permit.
Monitoring began in 2012 in the San Dieguito Wetlands and Tijuana Estuary in San Diego County, CA, Carpinteria Salt Marsh in Santa Barbara County, CA, and Point Mugu Lagoon in Ventura County.
Bird feeding activity was estimated for twenty plots in each wetland having at least one targeted shorebird species present on the ground.
