Methods

Censuses were done using a methodology based on the one proposed by Wetlands International during the weekend of the 16th and 17th of January. S'Albufera was censused in most recent years using a helicopter to flush birds from non accessible locations and facilitate counting by ground personnel. The numbers of some species like Rallus aquaticus, Gallinula chloropus, Porphyrio porphyrio and Gallinago gallinago were estimated and not counted. Data were reported as number of individuals.
