Bird Feeding: A How-to Workshop
Saturday, November 16 / 10 AM – 11 AM
Free and open to the public*
Feeding birds and creating a bird-friendly habitat is a great way to help wildlife and attract color and life to your yard during winter. But how does one get started, what is the best type of food, and how do you identify your backyard visitors? Come learn how to feed birds responsibly by prioritizing wildlife health and safety.
Whether you are a first-time feeder or have been doing it for some time and want to learn more, VINS staff will introduce you to the birds you can expect to visit your feeders, explain what types of feeders and feed are best, and show you how to turn your yard into a bird-friendly habitat. Additionally, learn how you can become a part of the global citizen science effort, Project FeederWatch. The observations submitted by Project FeederWatch participants, ordinary volunteers who enjoy watching birds at their feeders each winter, are used by researchers to track bird populations around the world.
Afterward, shop our bird-friendly products at the VINS Nature Store and receive a 10% discount on all bird-feeding items including feeders, field guides, and window deterrents.
