Description:
Video of Heron Inventory and Stewardship in the Columbia Basin. Great Blue Heron monitoring findings from 2002-2017 show a dramatic 50% decline in the numbers of active and successful nests in the Columbia Basin. For Kootenay Connect, the goals are to update the heron breeding occupancy in the project’s four focal areas (Creston, Columbia Wetlands, Wycliffe and Bonanza Corridors), and implement conservation and stewardship actions for confirmed breeding sites.
