2024 Winter Lecture Series: Invasive Management for Birds with Josh Bruce (February 25, 2024)

Due to unforeseen circumstances the original program “2024 Winter Lecture Series: Hunters Sharing the Harvest with Randy K. Ferguson” has been cancelled. In its place we have the following amazing lecture: “Invasive Management for Birds with Josh Bruce”

Birds require native plants for food and habitat. Invasive plants are replacing natives, leading to losses in the success of nesting sites, nutrient deficiency for migrating birds and food shortages for chicks. Bird abundance and diversity are decreasing. How can we help support bird populations in our own backyards? Learn how to target specific invasive plants detrimental to the success of vulnerable birds and replace them with advantageous natives.

 Josh Bruce specializes in helping landowners recover ‘lost’ or ‘overwhelmed’ sections of their property with a native vegetation system specifically designed to help reverse the decline of our bird populations—and look good too.

All lectures will be held virtually using Zoom. They will be recorded and shared with everyone who registers for a short time. Zoom invitations will be sent out after this time to the email used to register for the event via education@bhwp.org.

Program Fee: $15 (Members, enter your code at checkout to receive your 20% discount.)

Additional Information: Online registration for this program closes at noon on the date of the program. This lecture is part of our Annual Winter Lecture Series. The series features presentations by regionally renowned experts who address a wide range of topics related to natural history, biodiversity, ecological gardening, native plants and native wildlife.
