List of basic breeding data collected Lay date, clutch size, hatch date, number hatched, number fledged
Description of the protocols for breeding data collection Nest boxes checked weekly to record final clutch size, number of hatchlings and number of fledglings, and to ring nestlings. Number of hatchlings determined from the numbers of recently hatched nestlings and unhatched eggs. Number of fledglings determined from the numbers of nestlings prior to fledging and those found dead in the nest after fledging. First egg laying date calculated back from the number of non-incubated eggs, or from hatching date if the nest was not visited during the laying period. 
Description of the protocols for taking individual level measurements Nestling wing length measured with a ruler and hatching date estimated from the wing length of small nestlings by comparing it with growth curves of nestlings with known age. Wing length, tarsus length and mass also measured when nestlings are ringed.
