Proposed monitoring plan for harlequin ducks in the Bow Region of Alberta

Description

This monitoring plan was designed to address three objectives. First, to make a preliminary assessment of the status of all potential harlequin duck breeding streams in the bow Region of Kananaskis Country, and describe methods to continue this assessment with field work over a number of years. Second, to describe and assess the methods used to determine the population status of the ducks on the Elbow and Kananskis rivers; to assess the effectiveness of helicopter surveys used in central Alberta; and to recommend which methods to use to continue to estimate population size. Third, to describe and assess methods used to determine productivity of harlequin ducks on the Elbow and Kananskis rivers, and their validity for other streams.
