The use of helicopters to conduct aerial surveys for LPC leks is an effective method for covering the large, often inaccessible, landscapes of the southern Great Plains. Surveys are designed and flown as a series of north/south transects spaced 400 meters apart to allow for edge to edge coverage based…
