We will conduct a site survey to create a map of where each CAGN pairs’ territories are located and an estimate of the extent/boundaries of their territories. Once we find nests we will determine what stage they are at and when the eggs will hatch or if already feeding nestlings, determine their age. Ideally we will band the nestlings at 7-9 days old. Or if they are older, then we will band them when they are about to fledge. Once all the nestlings are banded we will observe them leave the nest and the try and re-sight them at neighboring locations within dispersal distance.
