Birds of Massachusetts Woodlands: An Informational Talk
This event happened in the past.Dartmouth, MA 02747
Note: This event has been rescheduled from its original date of March 13 due to weather.
Are your woods bird-friendly? How can you accomplish your land management goals, while benefiting forest songbirds?
The forests of New England are vital for the survival and reproduction of many birds, such as the chestnut-sided warbler and wood thrush. Yet numerous forest birds have undergone a drastic decline in numbers. These declines can be attributed in part to the current habitat conditions found in our forests. Creating and maintaining hospitable habitat will be fundamental to sustaining our forest birds, and doing so requires engagement and action.
Please join Mass Audubon and the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation for this workshop on bird habitat in Massachusetts.
You will leave the workshop more familiar with species that depend on the Massachusetts woods for breeding habitat, and better able to assess how your own management goals can help these birds flourish.
A new program called “Foresters for the Birds” will also be described.
Please RSVP to Michael Downey.
