Wild Birds in Your Backyard!
On Sunday, July 24
,
Wild Birds Unlimited of Santa Monica's Julie Hanson
will greet shoppers at the Mar Vista Farmers Market's Green Tent and talk about “The Wilderness in Your Backyard.” For the wild birds around the neighborhood, a typical backyard is their wilderness, the place where they find food, water and shelter, and raise their babies.
For fun, kids can stop by and learn how to make a pine cone bird feeder. The local birds will delight in finding your backyard offering of a nutritious treat and the whole family will enjoy seeing who stops by for a visit.
Come and learn how you can enjoy the numerous wild birds living in your own backyard by putting out the feeders, food, and water that the birds love.
Ms. Hanson will show Green Tent guests the typical wild birds that visit their backyards and neighborhoods, and how to view and recognize them.
Learn how you can support and protect the birds and their nests in the neighborhood's trees and bushes.
