Pollinator Town | Kirtland Bird Club | Wed, 10/8 | 6 or 7 PM (see details)
Register hereWe love to watch insects visiting our flowers, but as the growing season ends, we may wonder about pollinators’ lives away from the flowers. Where do bees, moths, beetles, and others go to find shelter, and how can we modify our gardens to give these insects a home? This presentation explores the garden as though it were a city of pollinators with habitat features that we, the gardeners, can provide. Arrive at 6 PM for a bird walk, or at 7 PM for the presenation!
