The migratory journeys made by many species of birds are the energetic equivalent of running many consecutive marathons. Unlike a human running a marathon, though, birds can’t stock up on protein bars to eat along the way!
In this webinar, we will discuss different types of bird migration and how you can manage your land (or even your backyard!) to help birds make a successful journey
Take-away lessons will include:
How to evaluate your space and choose target species
How to improve the food, water, and shelter that your space provides
Where to learn more about the amazing birds that benefit from your hard work
