Does the chance of less common species arriving at the feeder change day to day?
Reading the Graph: Did the chance that a species arrive at the feeder during a half-hour time interval change day to day? How do species compare? Find out and see if you notice any other patterns by simplifying the graph with the interactive feature. Look for the checked boxes under “Choose What to Display,” and toggle on and off the different choices to see if you notice any patterns.
Notes: Each day is split into 30-minute intervals from 6:30 to 18:30 (i.e. 6:30 pm), and the height of each bar is the percentage chance that a species will arrive during any of those intervals. Each color refers to one of the three less common species. The three more common focal species (Clay-colored Thrush, Crimson-backed Tanager, Thick-billed Euphonia) are featured in another graph. Be careful comparing different graphs because the values on the vertical axis will change.
