Fate of Minnesota’s Forest Birds: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly – Presented by Dr. Gerald Niemi @ Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center

Friday, February 14 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

  Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center $25

Kicking off February is a culmination of years of research in the Northwoods and a look toward to the future for Minnesota’s forest birds. There are plenty of conservation success stories and positive trends in populations of some species, but there are a wide variety of species that need our conservation attention in the boreal forest and beyond. This talk will shed light on the precarious (or positive!) future of some of the 150+ nesting species of Minnesota’s forest birds. Activity Rating- 1 Easy (travel over even terrain on roadways/boardwalks or limited hiking up to ½ mile total)

We are excited for yet another field trip season in the Sax-Zim Bog! This winter, our field trip schedule expands the use of the Lois King Education Center! Field Trip attendance is free for members (those who have donated $25 or more within the past year). If you are interested in membership, the $25 fee covers membership and free entry to any field trip or program in a 12-month period! 

Friday Afternoon Speaker programs do not require registration. Minnesota Master Naturalist field trips require registration through the Minnesota Master Naturalist online portal.
