Go beyond conventional bird feeders—use native plants to turn your backyard into a diverse, year-round avian habitat! Learn what the birds of New England actually need from us and become part of the new, natural approach, using planting aesthetics that embrace the ecological value of native species, variety, and untidiness. This Native Plant Trust virtual live program on September 13 at 1 pm addresses fruit-bearing shrubs, pollinators, and birds’ feeding and nesting preferences. Chris Leahy is the lecturer and the cost is $12 for members of NPT, $15 for nonmembers. Register at http://www.nativeplanttrust.org/events/gardening-birds/
