[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5298899, member: 2805"] Honestly, losing a couple nests here and there is FAR outweighed by the benefits a good burn produces, as long as you are burning smallish blocks (50 to 250ac at a time). Ground nesting birds avoid a fresh burn while nesting.... but LOVE to take their poults to the edge of the burn to forage. After initial greenup, the fresh burn is some of the most wildlife attractive habitat there is. We got a great burn on my lease mid April (after greenup) year before last in MS. That in combination with my hammering of the coons has really led to an explosion of turkey and quail this year. [/QUOTE]
