Speakers Jan Wrede and Rufus Stephens, the co-authors of Land Stewardship for Birds, will discuss this topic in the specific environments of aquatic and riparian habitats. They chose this focus because riparian corridors have among the greatest diversity of bird species and the greatest abundance of individual birds of all habitat types. Riparian birds are an excellent indicator of riparian and aquatic ecosystem health. Thus, stewardship for birds along riparian corridors increases the quality of the entire ecosystem. The presenters will talk about breeding and migratory bird species that live in different levels of the riparian and aquatic habitats and have different survival needs. Topics will include the serious environmental problems these birds face as well as their causes and the solutions land stewards can provide.
