Inspired by the memoir "Birding to Change the World" by Trish O'Kane, we've invited local nature experts to talk about how birding changes your relationship to plants, wildlife—and people. Admission is free but seating is limited so please RSVP.
Bridget Daley will share her tips on how to turn your yard into a year-round bird feeder by using native perennial plants, trees and shrubs. Bridget is a native plants garden coach, member of Madison Environmental Commission, and a Rutgers Environmental Steward.
Tedor Whitman, director of the Cora Hartshorn Arboretum and Bird Sanctuary in Milburn, will talk about migratory birds and how an ecologically friendly suburban landscape helps them survive their long journeys by providing food and habitat.
R.J. Curcio, a Drew 2017 grad and an ecologist for the Monmouth County Park System, will discuss how preserving and managing diverse natural habitats for birds builds community. Off-duty, he is a passionate wildlife photographer.
Wild Birds Unlimited in Denville will be on hand to answer bird feeder questions.
The Nature of Reading Bookshop will have a pop shop with birding and native plant books.
