Surveys of marbled murrelet during the breeding season on the central coast of British Columbia, 1991 / L. Prestash, R. Burns, G.W. Kaiser.: CW69-5/160E-PDF

"We conducted surveys for Marbled Murrelets (Bruchyramphus mumorurus) in Queen Charlotte Sound, Milbanke Sound, Mathieson Channel, Kynoch Inlet and Mussel Inlet during May and June 1991. There were far fewer birds in Queen Charlotte and Milbanke Sounds than in 1990. A new form of stationary count in the channels and inlets revealed unexpectedly large movements of murrelets near dawn and dusk indicating much larger populations than observed during more typical moving boat surveys"--Abstract.
