PRESENTATION: STUDY OF RED-HEADED WOODPECKERS, A BIRD OF CONSERVATION CONCERN

Mark Vukovich, a wildlife biologist on the Shawnee National Forest, will present results from a long-term study on red-headed woodpeckers, a bird of conservation concern. The long-term study was conducted while he worked for the Southern Research Station in South Carolina.<br/>This study spanned 7 years (2002–2009). The work included effects of transmitters on behavior, adult survival, forest treatments and responses by woodpeckers, fall migration, and nestling diets. Mark will also be presenting preliminary survey results for red-headed woodpeckers on the Shawnee National Forest. The Shawnee National Forest is documenting positive and immediate responses from red-headed woodpeckers on several completed and ongoing timber projects. Preliminary results suggest that populations of red-headed woodpeckers are increasing on the Shawnee National Forest and will continue to do so into the future.<br/><br/>This presentation is sponsored by the Southern Illinois Audubon Society, http://www.siaudubon.org<br/>*Entrance to the Carbondale Township Hall is from the rear of the building where two parking lots are available for use.

Status of Cerulean Warblers on the Shawnee National Forest

Status of Cerulean Warblers on the Shawnee National Forest <br/>Join SIAS on Friday, Dec. 1st at 7:00 p.m., for this presentation by Kevin Sierzega, biologist with the IL Nature Preserves, and Mark Vukovich, wildlife biologist with the Shawnee National Forest, in the meeting room at Carbondale Township Hall*, 217 E. Main St. Carbondale<br/> Although cerulean warblers are listed by numerous organizations as a species of conservation concern and are currently threatened in Illinois, there is limited information of their current distribution and population size in Illinois and on the Shawnee National Forest. The objectives are to update and check known records, map the distribution, and estimate the population size of the cerulean warbler on the Shawnee National Forest. <br/> Based on known records, Kevin and Mark conducted playback transects <br/>surveys along creeks and floodplains to elicit responses from males in the <br/>summers of 2021-2023 and covered an estimated 4,212 acres. They documented <br/>and mapped 106 singing male cerulean warblers with the largest concentration <br/>located in the Cave Valley and Cedar Creek area of the Shawnee National Forest <br/>in Jackson County. This presentation will discuss survey methods, cerulean <br/>warbler distribution and population sizes, and known and future habitat analyses<br/>and planned work and projects on the Shawnee National Forest. <br/>
