  9. Methods Standard survey protocol: -Permits -Training Workshops -Standard Techniques and Routine Surveys -Capturing, Banding, Observations -GIS/Remote Sensing San Pedro River, Arizona http://www.schmoker.org/BirdPics/Flycatchers.html http://identify.whatbird.com/img/4/1180/image.aspx

  10. Large Scale Regional Surveys EPA Forest Health Monitoring Unit (FHM) -Triangular Grid of 40-km^2 hexagons -Spacing of 27.1 km between centers of the hexagons -Observed species rather than the number of individuals -Types of bird species observed in similar behaviors were also grouped together for some statistical analyses (Canterbury 2000). http://www.schmoker.org/BirdPics/Photos/Flycatchers/VEFL4.jpg

  11. Results -Presence of canopy nesters and shrubland assemblage groups increased with canopy cover, while habitat generalists and forest edge assemblages showed no consistent trend in regard to canopy cover -Numbers of granivores and bark-foraging insectivores had the greatest response to habitat disturbance levels -The index derived was an attempt at a broad-based indicator of how much a population or community has been affected by disturbance (Canterbury 2000). http://www.schmoker.org/BirdPics/Photos/Flycatchers/VEFL12.jpg

  12. http://www.arthurgrosset.com/sabirds/photos/pyrrub24833.jpg -Several papers have been written criticizing the use of the indicator species concept, because "individual species do not necessarily reflect trends in other co-occurring species," and can furthermore "respond independently to environmental variation" (Canterbury 2000)

  13. Discussion The ultimate measure of habitat suitability is not simply whether or not a site is occupied. Suitable habitats are those in which flycatcher reproductive success and survivorship results in a stable or growing population. Without long-term data showing which sites have stable or growing populations, we cannot determine which habitats are suitable or optimal for breeding southwestern willow flycatchers.
