2013 Final Report on the Western Snowy Plovers

Abstract

In 2013 we continued with the monitoring of the WSP population at Coal Oil Point Reserve as in previous years. We had predator control during most of the breeding season and the loss of nests from mammalian predators was low. However, chick predation from unknown predators was high. Nesting on the mud flats was also the highest on record.
