I realize the following query is off topic for this list, but I'm hoping to tap into the collective wisdom.
I own some forested property in NH and have been working with a certified forester to develop a stewardship plan with long term goals of promoting wildlife, recreational trails etc. They will be doing some logging, possibly starting in June. I'm concerned about nesting birds. Is there a preferred date (similar to mowing a hay field) to begin logging operations that would have the least impact on nesting birds?
