Michigan Department of Natural Resources reposted this
Welcome to our restoration series, where we tap into the power of forests. Meet Kirtland’s Warbler, one of the world’s most elusive birds. American Forests has been supporting painstaking, cooperative restoration efforts by state and federal agencies to manage this warbler’s limited breeding grounds in northern Michigan, parts of Wisconsin and Ontario, Canada since 1990. We sponsor the Kirtland’s Warbler program with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, a multiple year agreement that began in 2017. Learn more about Kirtland’s warbler and restoration efforts here: https://lnkd.in/ejXXTeam
