WRC Water Webinar – Smoke on the Water: Fire Effects on Black Rails and Other Coastal Marsh Birds

Smoke on the Water: Fire Effects on Black Rails and Other Coastal Marsh Birds featuring Dr. Jim Cox and Heather Levy of the Stoddard Bird Lab at Tall Timbers Research Station (TTRS).

Jim Cox heads up the Stoddard Bird Lab at TTRS. The focus of the award-winning lab ranges from assessing how fire management affects habitat for several birds that inhabit coastal marshes and upland pine forests to performing hands-on activities that benefit Red-cockaded Woodpecker, Brown-headed Nuthatch, and Frosted Elfin (an imperiled butterfly).

Heather Levy is an avian biologist in the Stoddard Bird Lab at TTRS. She has been studying Florida avifauna associated with fire for over 5 years, focusing on endemic and endangered species conservation and habitat management.
