Background

About Daniel Harington

I am a seasoned and well-traveled field biologist with a wide range of skills and abilities. I have nearly 20 years of experience in the field, and therefore I am versed in orienteering, traveling rough terrain on foot, driving 4WD vehicles on questionable roads, handling data and writing reports, and using GIS software, among other things. Some highlights of my experience and skill set-Songbirds visual and auditory surveys, point counts, spot mapping nest finding and monitoring mist-netting and banding -Nocturnal Raptors night surveys, both on foot and by vehicle daytime followups, including mousing to protocol and locating nests capture and banding (spotted owls)-Diurnal Raptors survey and nest-finding nest monitoring migration site counts trapping and banding -Seabirds marbled murrelet site surveys population estimates from skiff surveys -Bats monitoring maternity colonies (Townsend's big-eared bat) surveying using mist-nets -Salmonids redd surveys for coho, chinook, and steelhead electrofishing out-migrant trapping -Herpetofauna red-legged frog breeding site survey and monitoring stream surveys genetic sampling (tail clips)-Geomorphology longitudinal profiles cross-sections sediment characterization (V*)-Large Carnivores winter snow-tracking (Canadian lynx) collection of scat and hair baited hair-snare stations trapping (wolverine and American marten)-Small Mammals survey using trapping grids ear-tagging for mark-recapture
