Gardening for Birds
This webinar will explore how to bring more birds to your home with native plants. Find out how to create a Pacific Northwest bird habitat that provides birds with food, shelter, and nesting sites year-round. Whether you are in a house, a tiny home, or an apartment, your outdoor space can become a sanctuary for you and the birds. We will have three master gardeners come in and share some of their tips and answer your questions about gardening for birds.
Rainier Audubon’s May Birdathon
It’s “birding for dollars!”
It’s time for the May Birdathon! It’s fun and easy to participate. Simply count as many bird species in one day as you can! Choose any day in May. Have family, friends, and co-workers sponsor you, then go birding! Afterwards, send your sponsors a list of the birds you saw, and they will donate X amount for each species (i.e. $1 or another amount). Or they can donate a flat fee. 100% of the proceeds support Rainier Audubon activities in south King County.
