When the birds reach the point where they tolerate handling, a banding program will be started. | 1,007 | 1,007 | 70 | 100 | This is a very rough estimate based on where the FSJs respond to call surveys and habitat quality. Because the ECSF birds are so skittish, it is possible other birds are persisting in the larger blocks of sub-optimal scrub, but there is no evidence for this. The 50-acre block of sand pine scrub that was logged and burned was occupied by FSJs within 2 years. | 957 | 72 | 573 | 129 | 100 | 83 | 271 | | 3 | 81 | 94 | | 508 | | Crooked wood sale | The heart of the known FSJ territories on ECSF are fragmented lots within a subdivision.

The habitat is very overgrown and barely suitable. There is no management on the private lands and no opportunity to do so (too many homes, can't burn). The District is doing scrub restoration in hopes of offering suitable habitat in the future. | |
