We will review the Guide while walking through various stands and habitats. We will learn more about the focal birds within the Guide\, bird habitat preferences\, identify associated understory species\, and how forest structure and variability play a vital role in supporting desirable habitat for different bird species\, as well as a healthy and functional forest.   \nWe look forward to meeting you\, hearing about your management efforts\, projects\, and wildlife and bird observations!
