Notes: |
Birds were trained to appear for food when people clap their hands. Put food in trap, and closed door to catch. Caught more than 60, but released juveniles and those of wrong sex. Transport time was less than 24 hrs. Released birds at 2 locations (Port Charles and Stony Bay), but they were close enough for the populations to mix within 2 weeks.
