Shrubland Restoration

Abstract

The shrubland at Fermilab is an area home to many species such as songbirds, insect and a variety of plant life. While it has its inhabitants many native songbirds are decreasing in population and this may be because the area is not suitable for these birds anymore. The three specific birds impacted the most are the yellowbreasted chat, bells vireo, and the willow flycatcher. The area is currently not offering a suitable habitat for these native birds for many reasons.
