Dr. Doug Manzer, Senior Scientist and Wildlife Program Manager for the Alberta Conservation Association (ACA) joins Mark and Curtis to discuss a cool habitat enhancement project. This conversation comes on the heels of the field trip where Doug toured Mark and Curtis around a habitat enhancement project that the ACA is helping the landowner with to restore upland game bird and waterfowl habitat within the heart of the intensive agriculture zone in south-central Alberta. Topics covered include historical and modern farming practices in Alberta, landscape changes, gray partridge, ring-necked pheasants, waterfowl, songbirds, wetlands, water retention, groundwater recharge, insect diversity, crop predators, brood habitat, rearing habitat, security cover and paying for private land habitat management.
