Calibrating the data logger…
I propose to continue studies initiated in 1973 on flowering phenology and plant demography, and hummingbird demography. Also similar studies initiated more recently but mostly decades ago. Phenology will be monitored 3X/week in permanent plots, and individually tagged plants of three species will be monitored annually. Other annual counts include the number of flowering Frasera speciosa in the East River valley. A long-term Malaise trap study in the Research Meadow will be continued, with two different types of traps collecting samples 2-3 days/week. I will continue efforts to reduce deer herbivory in my study plots and to estimate the resident deer population. I will continue establishment of a Motus station for tracking radio-tagged animals, continue collaboration with Cassie Stoddard's lab members, and initiate a collaboration on songbirds with Savannah Troy.
