SUMMARY:Backyard Bird Habitat Workshop

In this workshop\, participants will learn why birds need native plants\, which native plants are “powerhouses” for birds\, and how you can turn your backyard into a natural bird feeder. This workshop will feature an indoor educational session in the morning followed by an outdoor field trip in the afternoon to visit good examples of bird-friendly landscaping.
