We honor the memory of our colleague, USFWS employee Richard Guadagno, who was on board Flight 93 when the hijacked plane crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, on September 11, 2001. We also remember the innocent lives lost in the terrorist attacks that day.

Check out the exceptional work our @USFWS biologists are undertaking in the Southwest Region.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in South TX, together with Friends of the Wildlife Corridor and @American Forests, has Rewilded 18,617 acres of forests on Refuge lands, reversing the loss of 93% of primary forests, and benefitting some of 530 bird species including the Green Jay.

Hot off the press. Members from our team sought to understand more about the Golden-cheeked warblers specific habitat requirements & abundance estimates in its entire breeding range throughout central Texas. Check it out below. @audubonsociety @TPWDnews @USFWS #birds #endangered
Golden-cheeked warblers have been known to breed in Ashe juniper woodlands. But researchers delved deeper to find out if the endangered #birds use lower tree canopy cover as well. ow.ly/52Q250IZ4Bn #conservation #wildlife #endangeredspecies
4) They found habitat suitability for masked bobwhite quail to be negatively associated with fire frequency from Landsat data, yet habitat suitability increased with an increased number of years since the last fire. #endangeredspecies @USFWSRefuges

3) And airborne LiDAR height metrics were important in characterizing vegetation structure for masked bobwhite quail. @USFWSRefuges #endageredspecies

2) Worldview-3 imagery was essential at characterizing desert grassland composition.. #quail #endageredspecies #fws @USFWSRefuges sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
1) Check out our latest paper led by our Spatial Ecologist. Their study used multisensor models and worldview 3-imagery to develop habitat suitability models for masked bobwhite quail.
