[QUOTE="Southern Sportsman, post: 5874172, member: 10399"] Hatchability is one data point. The numbers above show a small improvement in hatchability in the three delayed counties (.84 to .87). Granted, that's not a big change. But during the same timeframe, the non-delayed counties had a decrease in hatchability (.91 to .85). But I think nest success is more to the point. "nest success was 0.204 before the delay and 0.194 after the delay in no-delay counties. In delayed counties, nest success was 0.287 before the delay and 0.349 after." ^^ ^ That describes a 21.6% increase in nest success in the delayed counties in the two years immediately following the delay. During those same two years, the non-delayed counties (Maury and Bedford) saw a 4.9% [I]decrease [/I]in nest success. Of the people claiming that there is "no data showing that the delay helps," someone please explain how a significant increase in nest success immediately following the delay is anything other than "data showing that the delay helps."
