Also a good read if time is limited to watch the above: Bringing Nature
Home by Doug Talamy or see http://www.bringingnaturehome.net/

All of the above mention the deleterious effects of non-native plants on
ecosystems. R

Rick, can you by any chance point to specific studies that Dr. Tallamy has
done?  I am aware of his work on the relationship between native plants and
Lepidoptera (whose caterpillars are eaten by birds), but I'm not aware of
his work on the impacts of invasive plants on birds.  Thank you!

research on the effects on native birds.

Hi.  Would any of you happen to have written or otherwise know of articles
regarding net actual or potential impacts of invasive plants on Virginia
game species?  I say "net" because many people will argue, and rightfully,
that plants like *Elaeagnus umbellata *are a food source for wildlife.  The
impacts on biodiversity and reductions in native sources of food may be
less obvious in the shorter term.  I am wondering to what degree the spread
of invasive plants has or may impact hunting in Virginia or nearby states
over the long term.  Can you suggest any sources of information?



Thank you!
