Forests for the Flight: Managing Habitat Across the Woodcock Life Cycle (Holly Springs)
June 4, 2026 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Join NCWF South Wake Conservationists Chapter for a webinar about forest management strategies for woodcocks. As a flagship species, the American woodcock supports more than 50 other wildlife species through shared habitat, including wild turkey, northern bobwhite quail, whip-poor-will, and the threatened Swainson’s warbler. This migratory bird depends on early successional forest conditions across the Atlantic Flyway, spanning northern breeding grounds, migration stopover sites, and southern wintering areas. American woodcock populations have declined by 1–2% annually over the past 25 years, largely due to habitat loss.
Speaker Sara Cerv is a Forest Conservation Director at the Ruffed Grouse Society and American Woodcock Society. Join us for a presentation about how intentional forest management can create and sustain the young forest habitats that woodcock need throughout their life cycle and migration.
