  1. Data are expressed as mean ± 95% confidence interval, except for total fruit density, which is the sum of the fruit densities for the days Red-eyed Vireos were captured
  2. Mean fruit density use counts from the weekly census conducted across all of fall migration
  3. Sample sizes are six birds for Isla Contoy in 2016 and 15 birds for all other cases
  4. For the weekly fruit census, sample sizes are 12 and 14 for El Cuyo in 2016 and 2017, and 13 and 16 for Isla Contoy in 2016 and 2017. For all measures and years, the confidence intervals of the two sites overlap
