Workshop Fundraiser
Sunday, June 28 | 10:00 AM
Create a
Bird-Friendly Backyard
with conservationist and John Abbott College professor Ryan Young
Join us inside the barn at Le Verger Hudson Bio.
In this workshop about making your property or living area more bird friendly, Ryan Young will talk about what plants, trees, and shrubs
to grow to attract birds, what feeders and feed to use to attract birds in winter, and what kinds of bird houses can be used to attract birds to nest.
Other topics covered will be where to place birdhouses, how to monitor and maintain them, and how to increase certain bird populations' numbers that are in decline by putting up birdhouses. We'll also have the opportunity to visit the orchard's barn where Barn Swallows nest and we will explore the biology and behaviour of Barn Swallows, a threatened species in Canada.
The workshop will be guaranteed to increase your knowledge of local bird species and identify some of their common behaviours, as well as how to attract them to your yard or living space.
Ryan Young is a long time birder and naturalist and has worked to make his own property more bird and nature friendly. And as a city councillor in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, he has worked to make the town the first bird friendly municipality in the province of Quebec certified by Nature Canada.
Attendance is free, with a suggested donation benefiting Le Nichoir.
