Insights from long-term monitoring of a species in decline”
Thursday, October 23: reception – 7 p.m.; program – 7:30 p.m.
Dr. West will share insights from her research on Red-headed Woodpecker ecology and conservation at Cedar Creek ESR.

This talk will also explore how citizen science partnerships have advanced understanding of this declining species’ habitat requirements.
