The images for Figs 3 to 6 are incorrectly switched. The image that appears as Fig 3 should be Fig 6, the image that appears as Fig 4 should be Fig 3, the image that appears as Fig 5 should be Fig 4 and the image that appears as Fig 6 should be Fig 5. The figure captions appear in the correct order.

Posterior median (points), 25–75% quartile (thick bars) and 95% credible interval (thin bars) of marbled murrelet group size by 2-month survey window for all years pooled. The dark boxplots with circles and the light plots with diamonds were derived from the non-breeding (Sep-Apr) model and year-round (Sep-Jul) model, respectively. The year-round model only includes the sampling units consistent between breeding and non-breeding seasons (n = 11) and the non-breeding model includes all 32 sampling units. For the most part, murrelets were detected as pairs or singles. As a result, we did not attempt to model the effect of group size on detection by distance.

A 100% relative density in May-Jun for a given year indicates that the density of murrelets was identical to that observed during the non-breeding season (Sep-Apr) and would suggest that birds are not moving into the region from outer coastal environments to molt and over-winter as we predicted. However, if the May-Jun density were 50% of that observed during the non-breeding season, then there would be evidence for movement into the region during the non-breeding season.
