There is often a need to predict whether or not wintering waterfowl displaced from their normal feeding grounds by man's activities could be accommodated elsewhere. This short paper discusses and contrasts methods for studies of brant (Branta bernicla) in southeast England (K.C.) and wading birds (Charadrii) and shelduck (Tadorna sp.) on the Wash. Only an Abstract appears.
