Lengths of Stay and Stopover Strategies of Western Sandpipers During Migration at Two Sites in British Columbia, Canada by Anne L. Blondin, Mark C. Drever, Scott A. Flemming, Wendy E. Easton, Mark Maftei, Yuri Zharikov, Nils Warnock, Erica Nol

“…The average length of stay of Western Sandpipers at the Tofino site on the west coast of Vancouver Island varied from 2 to 6 days and was shorter than the length of stay at the Fraser River Estuary, where the average length of stay varied from 4 to 8 days. At both sites, adult birds had shorter stopovers during southward migration, juvenile birds had longer stopovers compared to adults, and birds with lower mass at capture had longer stopovers. …”
