During this evening presentation and informational booth, SOS Save Our Songbirds Coordinator Lisa Gaumnitz will share three ways to help declining songbird populations at home: planting native plants good for birds; protecting birds from hitting home windows; and purchasing coffee and chocolate grown on farms meeting the highest standards for preserving our migratory birds’ winter habitats. She’ll share the stories of people inspired by conversations, events and supplies from SOS volunteers, and provide supplies so attendees can jumpstart action at home: a free native plant guide identifying good trees, shrubs and wildflowers for birds; a free native plant good for birds; samples of Smithsonian Bird Friendly certified coffee; and, for a $10 donation, a Feather Friendly window treatment kit to prevent birds from hitting a problem home window. This program is sponsored by the Wisconsin Metro Audubon Society and is free and open to the public.
