Between Rivers Landbird Sampling in the Hudson Plains
The remote Hudson Plains of northern Ontario is a flat, wetland-dominated area and acts as a drainage basin for several major rivers that flow to Hudson and James Bay. Relative to other parts of the province, the Hudson Plains has been the subject of few bird sampling efforts, with most of bird surveys conducted within a few kilometres of major rivers and near the coast. The Canadian Wildlife Service developed this study to begin to estimate the degree to which sampling between the major rivers was needed to properly represent bird distribution and abundance in the region. Autonomous recording units (ARUs) were deployed via helicopter at 35 locations along a 208 kilometre North-South transect between the Attawapiskat and Albany Rivers and 11 clustered locations near the Attawapiskat River. Included here are interpreted data from the sound files collected by the ARUs during the period June 1 to July 6, 2019. There were 91 bird species and 6 amphibian (frogs and toads) species detected in the segments.
