On the Wing is your destination for conversations about upland bird hunting, wildlife habitat, public lands, bird dogs, wild game cooking and epic adventures in search of pheasants, quail and grouse. These are the stories of Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever’s 145,000 members, volunteers, team of professional wildlife biologists and experts in the field. Our shows are recorded in person and often on the road from the end of tailgates, backs of horse trailers and after a day in the field chasing birds.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-08T22:20:37.046162+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-wing-podcast-1052918"},"episode":{"title":"EP. 361: Habitat University, Creating Upland Habitat from the Ground Up","slug":"ep-361-habitat-university-creating-upland-habitat-from-the-ground-up","published_at":"2026-04-29T15:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-wing-podcast-1052918/ep-361-habitat-university-creating-upland-habitat-from-the-ground-up","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-wing-podcast-1052918","url":"https://pheasantsforever.org/default.aspx","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/d478dc57-b75d-40e8-b269-eca8f37421e6.mp3","summary":"This conversation breaks down Habitat University, a skills-based platform designed to close the gap between theory and real-world application. Whether you’re planting a pollinator plot, improving nesting cover, establishing a food plot, or managing CRP acres, the focus is on actionable knowledge that leads to better results on the landscape. You’ll hear how modern conservation faces a growing challenge: fewer people entering the field with hands-on land management experience. That gap impacts everything from pheasant and quail habitat to hunting success and overall wildlife populations. Habitat University addresses that by delivering short, practical courses on topics like seed drill calibration, prescribed burning, invasive species control, and habitat planning. For aspiring wildlife professionals, it offers a clear path to understanding conservation programs, working with landowners, and building job-ready skills. Better habitat leads to more birds, stronger hunting opportunities, and healthier ecosystems. This is about putting knowledge into action where it matters most, on the ground.
