Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge: 2000 ...

This report summarizes marshbird callback survey results for 2000. Last year's selection of points based on three mini-surveys was used as the basis of the route chosen for this year's survey. A series of 18 points from those three surveys was chosen to give a continuous series of points along the refuge impoundments. Two sites were rejected as having too much woods. The 18 sites on the 2000 survey began just south of the headquarters complex, proceeded along the west dike past the entrance to False Cape State Park, and came back along the east dike with one site on the south cross dike.
