Most happened within my lifetime, truth be told. Retired forester Mike Oliver and I met at ground zero back in the day. He joins me to reflect on the intent behind large-scale reforestation efforts, the programs and partners that delivered it, and to explore what these acres have provided over time--across wildlife, landscape, and conservation goals. It's a conversation focused on perspective, outcomes, and the opportunities ahead--one that has me wondering whether these landscape conversions may have influenced waterfowl use in parts of the Delta and, if so, what, if anything, can be done about it.
