IFA Webinar: Managing Temporary Woodland Pools for Wildlife

Without the expense and effort of installing a permanent pond on your land, there are several ways that you can improve wildlife habitat by maintaining temporary woodland pools.  This presentation will discuss many of the species who benefit from such a water feature, why these species are important, why their presence enhances the diversity and health of your land, and what you can do.

Join us.  This webinar is provided for free; and it might help you to improve your woodland's overall health.
