From backyard songbirds to long-distance migrants, birds depend on healthy landscapes to survive – and your garden can be part of a much larger story. In this session, Katie Hobgood, Program Director at Save the Dunes, will introduce “Living in the Dunes: A Homeowner’s Landscaping Guide for Bird Conservation in Indiana’s Coastal Communities,” a new resource created by Save the Dunes to help Northwest Indiana gardeners transform home landscapes into meaningful bird habitat. We’ll explore why birds are drawn to our region, what they need from the landscapes they move through, and how native plants can support both resident and migratory species. Participants will learn how the guide is organized and how to use it as a practical tool for building bird habitat right outside their door.
