Home Tweet Home - make your own bird feeders

Description

Join LRCC members Emma Murray and Sydney Paradise at the Squam Lakes Association headquarters on March 23 for a drop in event from 10am - 1pm to make your own bird feeders and learn about proper bird feeding etiquette. There will be a short presentation with a take home brochure of proper bird feeding practices at 10am, then after that it is a drop in event to make your very own birdhouse! Materials will be provided but if you have your own recyclables or china that need a new life, feel free to bring them in. The lakes region is such a good spot for bird watching and feeding so it is common to see bird feeders in everyone’s yard. This is an opportunity to come snag some bird seed for your own garden and learn about why, how and when we feed wild animals. At the SLA we enjoy all types of recreation and try to involve the public as much as possible. For people who can’t often get out to Squam lake this would be a great way to recreate in your own backyard. For more information, or to sign up for this Adventure Ecology program, visit the SLA website (squamlakes.org) or contact the SLA directly (603-968-7336). The SLA also offers other Adventure Ecology programs throughout the year. These free programs are open to the public and cover a variety of nature and conservation related topics. The Adventure Ecology programs are presented by the LRCC AmeriCorps members at the SLA who perform important conservation work in support of the Association’s mission. The Squam Lakes Association is dedicated to conserving for public benefit the natural beauty, peaceful character and resources of the watershed. In collaboration with local and state partners the SLA promotes the protection, careful use and shared enjoyment of the lakes, mountains, forests, open spaces and wildlife of the Squam Lakes Region.
