Limnodromus griseus
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Wapusk National Park, aggregated onto a 25 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.
Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
Records exist for May, June, July and August, with the widest coverage in May, June, July and August. A quiet month can mean the animal was absent, or that nobody was looking.
A grid cell is a square of the map, not a sighting: 1 square of 25 km carry records for Short-billed Dowitcher in and around Wapusk National Park, and the 1,132 records behind them were collected by other people and published openly. Nothing here counts animals, and a place with more records is not always a place with more animals.
Monteverde and Arenal are the two atlas places where the Short-billed Dowitcher is recorded, with records concentrating in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Costa Rica and Panama. The atlas holds about 507,000 records of Limnodromus griseus from nine countries, and the map shows where these records concentrate.
Of the 3 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Wapusk National Park, the Short-billed Dowitcher is the 2nd most recorded.
