Sampling comments: "Two bird captures were performed between 16 and 21 May, and between 14 and 18 June 2009. For this purpose, 20 mist nets (12 m longx2 m wide, 36 mm mesh) were displayed along human and animal trails within three forest areas (two work-days per area). In each area, mist nets were left open from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the first day and from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on the second day" and birds "were marked by cutting head feathers in order to verify any recapture, which was not considered in the counting"
