This grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Region 9 is for the conservation of birds, with a special emphasis on species listed in the Birds of Conservation Concern, 2008. This FY2009 project specifically aims to enhance understanding of the population status of the roselaari subspecies of the red knot. Proposals should concentrate on developing and implementing robust mark-recapture techniques. The primary objective is to accurately estimate the population size of Pacific coast red knot migrants, focusing on those observed passing through coastal Washington. This initiative seeks to bolster conservation efforts for these vital bird populations.
