Birds of Old Fields, Fields and Young Forest Edges Habitat Walk

UNH Extension will hold a Spring Wildlife Habitat Workshop on Birds of Old Fields, Fields and Young Forest Edges on Wednesday, May 26^th from 6 to 7:30 pm at the Page Pond Community Forest in Meredith, NH.

The Spring Wildlife Habitat series of field-based workshops is for landowners, conservation commission members, natural resources professionals, and anyone else interested in learning how to identify forest, field, and wetland wildlife habitats and approaches for maintaining or enhancing those habitats to benefit specific wildlife species.

Each workshop will occur entirely in the field. Workshop participants are encouraged to watch the recorded presentation Introduction to Wildlife Habitat Assessment and Management prior to attending any of these workshops; we will be applying the information discussed in that presentation during each workshop.

Join Matt Tarr, Extension’s State Wildlife Specialist and Don MacFarlane of the Meredith Conservation Commission for a wildlife walk through Page Pond Community Forest in Meredith, NH.

The old field workshop will be a leisurely walk focused on identifying birds by sight and sound.  It will discuss options for maintaining field, old-field, and young forest field edges to support a variety of birds and other wildlife.

Registration is limited and required.  To register, email Matt Tarr at matt.tarr@unh.edu
