She will discuss some of the birds you might attract to your yard throughout the year, and will share preliminary findings from the Lake Michigan Bird Observatory’s research on cavity-nesting bird reproductive success and vegetation characteristics.

$5 per person suggested donation at the door accepted – all donations will be split between the Urban Ecology Center and the Lake Michigan Bird Observatory.
