This dataset is focused on response variables for surface-feeding Black-legged Kittiwake and deep diving Thick-billed Murre at breeding colonies on St. Paul and St. George Islands in the Pribilof Islands. Data on seabird reproductive parameters (clutch size, hatching success, fledgling success, reproductive success, growth rates), timing of nesting events, diets, stress level (part of the patch dynamics study), annual adult survival, condition of adults (based on body size) and population trends were assessed at each island.
