Hi all, I'm looking into the feasibility of analysing the vast amount of existing bird and pest monitoring data as a way of examining relationships between birds, mammal predators, predator control, and forest fragmentation, as part of my PhD. I'm after any bird and pest monitoring data which have been collected with standardised methodologies (i.e. 5 min bird counts, tracking tunnels, wax tags, chew track cards, RTC etc). I'm particularly interested in data that were collected before and after pest control at a site, or where bird and pest data were collected concurrently - but also interested in results of surveys where this was not the case. If you have any data like this available, or if you have any suggestions/contacts that might be helpful, I would really appreciate it.
Cheers, Jay

Hi Jay, Yes, there is a lot of five minute bird count data in the database that may be useful to you. The problem is identifying which datasets will meet your needs. The 5 minute bird counts used standardised methodology and there are some large sets that are before and after pest control at sites but the difficulty is how to match what's there to other datasets that give pest information. Check the 5 minute bird count page on the DOC website http://www.doc.govt.nz/conservation/native-animals/birds/five-minute-bir d-counts/ which has an excel spreadsheet which lists all the datasets in the database. Also email me directly <email obscured> and I can help you identify suitable sets. Also email details on what you propose.
