1 Update on American Oystercatcher Reseach and Conservation in New Jersey Todd Pover, New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife - Endangered and Nongame Species Program Tom Virzi, PhD Candidate Department of Ecology, Evolution and Natural Resources Rutgers University
2 New Jersey s AMOY Efforts to Date Breeding surveys, including productivity monitoring, for all barrier beach strand pairs ( ). More comprehensive (but still not statewide) survey of all Atlantic coast habitats (May 10 - June 10, 2007). Rutgers University (Tom Virzi) nest success study, including factors influencing productivity, across all habitat types at state s three known major breeding areas ( ). Color banding, primarily breeding adults/fledges, following protocol of AMOY Working Group ( ). Winter population surveys (2002, 2004, 2005, 2006). Protection (i.e. fencing, signage, beach closures, stewards) at breeding sites where other beach nesting birds (i.e. piping plovers, least terns) are present. Inclusion of GIS mapping data in state s Landscape Project - regulatory implications.
3 Barrier Beach Strand Breeding Population AVG. # Pairs # Pairs Hatched # Chicks Fledged Pair Hatch Success 21% 33% 27% 25% 23% 26% Fledge Rate (per pair) # Sites
4 Oystercatcher Pairs Monitored 2006 Study Areas: Comprehensive Nest Success Study Rutgers University Island Beach State Park Holgate Division Edwin B. Forsythe NWR Stone Harbor Point
5 Oystercatcher Pairs Identified During Coastal Surveys 2007 Pairs Monitored 2006 Survey Results 2007 Surveys conducted in 2007 in NJ on all beach strands and in all saltmarsh habitat located within 4km of Atlantic coast
6 Results of 2007 Coastal Oystercatcher Surveys 212 Breeding pairs identified during 2007 surveys 120 Pairs already monitored by ENSP and Rutgers University 332 Total breeding pairs identified to date in NJ An additional 68 floaters or juveniles also observed Most oystercatchers in NJ are breeding in saltmarsh, back-bay islands or inlet beaches (79%)
7 Comprehensive Nest Success Study Rutgers University
8 Results of Rutgers University Nest Success Study Monitored oystercatcher nests at 3 study sites Island Beach, Holgate, Stone Harbor 334 Nests monitored over entire period Data analyzed in Program MARK Stage-specific models (incubation & nestling) Results reported here based on constant daily survival probabilities across years Hatch success rates based on 28 day incubation period Brood success rates based on 42 day fledging period Nest success rate = hatch rate x brood rate
9 Results of Rutgers University Nest Success Study Hatch Success Brood Success Nest Success % 20.0% 14.0% 14.9% n/a 36.2% 57.3% 56.6% n/a 7.2% 8.0% 8.4%
10 NJ Banding Efforts
11 NJ Banding Efforts Banding efforts concentrated during breeding season (noose-carpet method) 123 birds banded Adults banded at nests 66 Chicks banded prior to fledging 31 Birds banded in winter flocks Ongoing band resighting efforts during breeding and wintering surveys.
12 Winter Population Surveys (Barnegat Inlet to Cape May Inlet) Date Year Count Type Nov aerial Dec aerial Dec ground Dec ground Dec ground Significant Winter Flocks: Absecon Inlet, Atlantic Co. ( birds) Hereford Inlet, Cape May Co. ( birds)
13 What s Next in New Jersey? Comprehensive statewide breeding survey? (What year)? Banding efforts will be substantially increased during 2008 breeding season by Rutgers University. Continuation of research by Rutgers University beyond 2008? Research ideas: foraging studies; better understanding of dynamics of winter population. Protection of important breeding sites in back bay/salt marsh habitat. Protection of vulnerable migratory and wintering sites from human disturbance (especially vehicles and boats/pwc). Inclusion of wintering roost sites in state s Landscape Project and as part of critical coastal wildlife habitat designation. Keeping AMOY a priority for funding. With 50/50 match for SWG funding, budgets/projects getting closer scrutiny.
