Bird conservation in the northern forests of Michigan,
Minnesota, and Wisconsin has received increasing attention in the last
decade in response to a great need for improved coordination of monitoring
and other conservation activities across the boreal hardwood transition
zone. The Northern Forests Birds Network was established to provide
training and resources for land managers from all organizations concerned
with bird habitat.
In response to member requests at an October 2023 workshop,
the NFBN is organizing multiple webinar sessions on climate change
adaptation in 2024. This June 13th session featured Maddy Baroli and
Stephen Handler from NIACS sharing an explanation of the Adaptation
Workbook, Forest Adaptation Menu, and Wildlife Adaptation Menu. A
second webinar featuring NIACS staff on July 11th focused on assisted
migration tools and resources and will be available for viewing soon at the
NFBN YouTube channel.
