Testing grazing strategies for Bobolink
We collaborated with the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement Association and beef farmers in the Ottawa Valley to investigate rotational-grazing strategies to support Bobolink conservation in pastures.
Bobolink dispersal after hay harvest
We used radio telemetry to track adult Bobolink dispersal following hay harvesting during the nesting season.
Bobolink and Eastern Meadowlark habitat use
We conducted surveys in four watersheds in southern Ontario to assess Bobolink and Eastern Meadowlark habitat use across agricultural land-cover types.
Barn Swallows and social cues
We investigated if social cues (Barn Swallow decoys and audio recordings) could be used as a conservation tool to attract birds to new nesting structures.
