Methods
Life forms: birds
Sites: 4
Sampling methods: no design, mist nets
Sample size: 905 captures or sightings

Sampling comments: researchers were in the field "for six consecutive months (June-November 2012), visiting all sites four times with a 30-day interval. Birds were captured using 15 mist nets (12 m long 92 x5 m high, 25 mm mesh)" (this presumably means each site was visited for four days, so research took place on 16 days)
