Abstract
We present data on capture and recapture of neotropical migrants at constant-effort mist net sampling locations in Utah between 1994 and 2002. Data were collected in accordance with MAPS (Monitoring Avian Productivity and Survivorship) protocols. Since 1994, a total of 23,789 birds have been captured (i.e., total captures include new captures, recaptures, and unbanded individuals) representing 149 species. Data collected thus far provide some measure of site fidelity and longevity for species breeding in and migrating through Utah. Of the 18,358 birds banded, 2,367 (12.9 percent) were subsequently recaptured at least once. The longest interval between initial capture and recapture was over eight years...
