Forest managers, wildlife conservation groups, policy makers, and other stakeholders often need to review literature on forest bird-vegetation relationships to inform decisions on natural resource management or ecosystem restoration. The literature gateway facilitates the exploration of this literature, helping users find references on a diverse range of management-relevant topics that have been compiled by subject experts based on searches of >60 different sources spanning the past 50+ years.

This guide outlines seven key conservation practices recommended to forest landowners who want to sustainably manage forests to benefit wildlife and forest health. USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and conservation partners work with forest landowners to plan and implement these practices that benefit a variety of species, including the golden-winged warbler. This assistance includes the development of a custom forest management plan as well as financial support to help cover part of the costs of implementing the practices. Technical and financial assistance are available through the Farm Bill, the largest source of federal funding for private lands conservation.

The Golden-winged Warbler Non-breeding Season Conservation Plan (Chapter 4 of the Goldenwinged
Warbler Conservation Plan) describes the non-breeding ecology of the Golden-winged
Warbler and proposes concrete actions to maintain habitat throughout its stationary nonbreeding
range (hereafter winter range). The plan is intended for use by conservation
practitioners, land managers, and governmental agencies both in North America and Latin
America. This plan provides guidance on where conservation investment in Latin America will
have the greatest impact on Golden-winged Warbler habitat and recommends conservation
actions to address the specific threats to habitat retention in the winter range. This plan is also
intended for use at the country level for all Latin American countries within the Golden-winged
Warbler winter range. For each country, this plan prioritizes areas where conservation action
should begin immediately, defines five-year conservation goals, and proposes a conservation
strategy to meet those goals by the year 2020.

The Golden-winged Warbler Status Review was initiated over a decade ago when David Buehler, John Confer, and Ron Canterbury were funded by the US Fish & Wildlife Service to elaborate on what was originally a status assessment begun by Chuck Hunter in 1999. Over time, that original project received input from others and underwent numerous stalls, revisions, and reviews. The continuous stream of new information that so rapidly outpaced the writing of the document is actually a tribute to the tremendous dedication and energy of the Golden-winged Warbler Working Group and its partners. In this version of the Status Review, survey and trend estimates have been updated to include 2009 BBS trend information. Genetic data were updated to include birds sampled during the 2010 breeding season. We are pleased finally to release the Status Review, at the same time acknowledging that new research and conservation action will just as quickly outdate much of the information it summarizes. We prefer to think of this document as a Status Transition to a more hopeful future.
