This included proceduressuch as area searches within a grid delineation of the colony to determine numbers as well as thebehavior of the target species using binoculars as well as the naked eye. More active surveytechniques consisted of finding nests and marking with a unique identifier on a stake, recordingpositional data on a handheld GPS unit and then returning each visit to monitor nests throughoutthe breeding stages.Sites I have worked at around San Diego Bay comprise of those located on the U.S. Navy Basefrom North Island down to the northern edge of Silver Strands State Beach and are used byapproximately 1400 breeding pairs of California least terns (2008) and 70 breeding pairs ofwestern snowy plovers (2007).
