  • Extensive additional habitat loss or modification from development is unlikely; focusing on preservation of currently unprotected areas may yield relatively little benefit.
  • Most productive to enhance the value of areas that are already developed.
  • For existing or future proposed developments within montane forest habitat, minimize disturbance, edge effects and fragmentation
  • Mitigate impacts of ski-area development, and telecommunications and wind power facilities.
    • “no net loss” is generally applied for any permitted montane-forest removal or alteration
  • Among the most vulnerable habitats in the Northeast to climate change. Minimize and adapt to inevitable change swiftly and decisively.
  • Internationally-coordinated efforts to conserve overwinter habitats are key for Bicknell’s Thrush, unknown whether there are significant threats to Blackpolls during non-breeding season.
