The River Talks: Secretive Marsh Birds and Their Use of Allouez Bay

A group of difficult-to-detect birds called secretive marshbirds including rails, bitterns, grebes and others rely on high-quality wetlands and have been experiencing population decreases due to loss and degradation of habitat. Attendees learn about these species, the threats they face, their use of Allouez Bay and other wetlands in the St. Louis River Estuary and a restoration project in Allouez Bay that is restoring habitat that they rely on with Tom Prestby, the Wisconsin Conservation Manager with Great Lakes Audubon.
