<br><br><div dir="ltr">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.

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 <i>Elaeagnus umbellata </i>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?<div><br></div><div>Thank you!</div><div><br></div><div>--Susan Gitlin</div></div>
