Wish List
Native Habitat Re-establishment program. $10,000
Cubbies of quail once were abundant on our property. The quail are for the most part gone. Quail is an indicative species. When quail are present, they indicate that the habitat is properly balanced.
To bring back the quail and other native grassland birds we need to reestablish the old habitat. We need money to cut down and clear out non desirable plants. To plant native grass seed and other native
plants that we intend to plant on the property. This goes hand in hand with our campaign to get rid of the SERICEA LESPEDEZA on the property and clear the red cedars and other unwanted vegetation. Over the
last 30 years Bromelsick like many other locations in the area have seen its fields over run with non desirable plants. We still have a lot of native grass land but we need to restore these fields back to what
they once were. When the quail come back, we will know the restoration has occurred. We need to get rid of SERICEA LESPEDEZA and return the warm season native grasses. Habitat restoration will require a five-year
program followed by long term maintenance. We need to add food plots for Quail. Once we cure the habitat problem we would try to purchase and release birds. The area was once perfect for quail. We would like to restore it so that the quail and other
wild life can once again be found on the property. We want our youth to be able to see as many native species of wild life as possible on the property.
