Abstract
This grant funded data collection during the third year of a 3-year project designed to meet several objectives including 1) determine the response of the breeding bird community to bottomland reforestation, 2) measure the success of the restoration efforts of conservation partners (TNC, USFWS, and ILDNR), and 3) provide results that are directly applicable to conservation plans and restoration efforts in other bottomland forest ecosystems.
