Richland Library Ballentine
Learn Freely: Bird Box Building
Saturday, May 25, 2024 2 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.
Create a safe place for nesting birds in your community by attending this bird box-building workshop and taking your masterpiece home.
Many bird species* depend on safe places, like bird boxes or bird nests, to raise their young. This workshop will give you the materials and tools to create a safe place.
You will also hear from a conservation expert about how we can all take action to preserve our wildlife, land and natural resources. Then find out how you can make your community safer for our songbirds.
*The featured bird is a Hermit Thrush photographed by Christian Feldt. It does not nest in bird boxes but instead is representative of the songbirds in our community.
This event is a partnership with Riverbanks Zoo and their Party for the Planet initiative.
A post-event survey will be passed out with opportunities to win a behind-the-scenes tour at Riverbanks Zoo & Garden and other fun prizes!
