[Tweeters] White Headed Woodpecker Research Study: Skagit Audubon Program

[Ann Kramer via Tweeters]

Wildlife Biologist Jeff Kozma will be presenting what he has learned in
over 20 years of researching the White-headed Woodpecker and other
cavity-nesting birds.
In Washington, the White-headed Woodpecker is listed as a species of
concern due to its association with old-growth ponderosa pine forests.
Although White-headed
Woodpeckers have recently been documented inhabiting early to mid-seral
managed forests, information is limited regarding their reproductive
success and general ecology in these forests.


Jeff will present brief highlights from his research including nest-site
characteristics, reproductive success, and nestling provisioning (i.e., who
feeds the kids and what they are feeding them). He will also
present a summary of findings from a long-term banding study he has been
conducting since 2011 investigating adult longevity and information on
juvenile dispersal from a colleague’s research. If you
ever wanted to know more about the White-headed Woodpecker, this
presentation is for you!

Presentation is this Tuesday evening, March 11, 2025 @ 7:00 PM.  It is free
to the public and it is a Zoom only meeting.  You can register  on the home
