Randomly placed line transects in each forest type. Any discontinuity in the canopy cover pattern of a specific forest type that is caused by treefall or edaphic conditions is considered a "gap". Point counts conducted every 200 m along transect, plus at each gap encountered, unless survey area overlap occurs. Each count was 10 minutes long, but divided into 5-minute intervals. During each point count, all birds detected by sight or sound within 75 m of the observer were recorded, and distance to bird approximated. Birds further than 75 m from the observer were recorded, but excluded from analysis. Point count intervals were recorded separately. All counts were conducted between 5:00 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. Each point was surveyed twice. More details are available in the metadata document for download. CWS-North DatasetID: 029_0
