All Other Lands in South Dakota BCR 17

We obtained results for All Other Lands in South Dakota BCR 17 by compiling and analyzing data from one stratum.

Field technicians completed all planned surveys (100%) in 2024. Technicians conducted 195 point counts within the 20 surveyed grid cells between May 21 and July 1. They detected 94 bird species, including 15 priority species.

Bird Conservancy estimated densities (birds per square kilometer) for 106 species that were detected in any year during which surveys were conducted, 9 of which are priority species. The data yielded robust density estimates (CV < 50%) for 17 species.

Bird Conservancy estimated the proportion of occupied plots throughout All Other Lands in South Dakota BCR 17 for 107 species that were detected in any year during which surveys were conducted, 10 of which are priority species. The data yielded robust occupancy estimates (CV < 50%) for 22 species.
