Feeding our Feathered Friends
November 14 @ 10:00 am–12:00 pm
Today's Adventure Ecology:
Wanna learn all about feeding and attracting wild birds to your backyard this winter? This program is for you!
Our morning will start with an introductory slideshow on smart feeder practices and their benefits. We will talk about how to attract certain species and exclude unwanted wildlife, clean your feeders, and use other parts of your yard to attract birds. After a Q&A session we will transition to crafting feeders. Use our materials or bring your own as we craft recycled feeders and pinecone feeders (nut allergy beware!). Stay until you have completed your craft and have any lingering questions answered.
This program is for all ages. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
