Why You Should Want to Attend:

The Armed Forces Initiative is the BHA program focused on creating conservationists within the military community. We are hosting a waterfowl housing stewardship event in western New Hampshire.

 

What is it:

During this stewardship event, attendees will be working hand in hand with New Hampshire's Lead Waterfowl Biologist. We will be monitoring the previous/current use of existing Hen Houses and Wood Duck Boxes on the marsh and gathering and documenting the data. We will also be placing new waterfowl housing in the same marsh depending on what is determined to be the need based on the information we have gathered.

This will be a great event for anyone looking to experience a scientific approach to waterfowl conservation.

One of the main focuses of this event is for the biologist to impart knowledge of this marsh to our AFI members so they become stewards of this marsh and can collect information in the future.
