These data have provided insight into the impacts of forest management on breeding bird populations and informed the development of management policies and conservation initiatives. This report summarizes forest bird monitoring data gathered from 1995 through 2021. Here we summarize the current status of species trends and overall trends for migration, habitat, and nesting guilds. We focus our discussion on species of conservation importance in the state to provide an ecological context and discuss management implications of the observed patterns in the region for these species.enNatural Resources Research InstituteUniversity of Minnesota DuluthMinnesota National Forest Breeding Bird Monitoring Program Annual Report 1995–2021Natural Resources Research Institute Technical ReportTechnical Report
