7 Nest and productivity monitoring Nest search estimate = 254 nests The last 3 years returned similar 25 year low counts of around nests Productivity monitoring at 27 sites Fledge rate down on last year for OP Chicks in good condition at fledge Small re-occurrence of unexplained adult deaths (affecting 4 birds) Avian Malaria had an impact late season Fewer juveniles seen this season cf last

16 Productivity monitoring At 27/41 sites searched annually: Area Nest Egg Hatch Fledge per pair North Otago Peninsula Catlins Combined
17 Chicks fledged per pair Otago Peninsula long term data s 1990s 2000s 2010s
18 Chicks fledged per pair 2.00 Chicks fledged per pair Catlins North Otago Otago Peninsula Chicks fledged per pair North Otago Chicks fledged per pair Otago Peninsula Chicks fledged per pair Catlins
19 End of season observations Heaviest Chick? (audience participation!) Marking chicks were dual marked at Boulder Beach, microchipped at other managed sites (n=8). PMs by Massey Uni show a suite of issues continue to have an impact. A few deaths were associated with massive red blood cell breakdown early Feb. Avian malaria impact on adults and chicks across sites at the end of season
20 Closing summary Nest est. = 254 A small bounce back in nest numbers was seen in the north Catlins area last year, but did not persist into this season productivity strongest in the south. Productivity monitoring at 27/40 sites Poor productivity for Otago Peninsula Diphtheria had big impact at northern sites Chicks condition at fledge good injured and low weight birds brought in to Hospital and rehabilitation boosted numbers fledged Avian Malaria and a few cases of unexplained adult deaths. Four deaths attributed to Dogs in Catlins
21 Update on Curio Bay To date around 4000 trees have been planted around the development area, to create potential habitat. Temporary barrier screen has been placed above the underpass entry. Construction of New elongated viewing hide is underway Educational material is distributed free to every camper when they register Large robust signs clearly indicate penguin only zone on rock shelf between ropes New updated interpretation is with designers proofs have been sent to iwi for comment. Options for closing access to rock platform are being investigated.
