Window strikes are a common cause of fatalities in songbirds and other avian species, so a Bala Cynwyd workshop will help to prevent these accidents.
Held just in time for the fall migration season, Awbury Arboretum’s “The Bird Collision Problem in Philadelphia” learning session will be on offer free of charge. The facilitator for the morning will be Keith Russel, and it will have a focus on the metro area.
The discussion will introduce the history of preventing window strikes, noting that much of the early research was done in the local area. The attendees will also learn about current efforts in the city, as well as what they can do at home to keep birds safe, and they can ask questions and raise concerns. Advance registration is strongly recommended, and attendance will be capped at 30 individuals.
Information sessions that address issues related to environmental stewardship are always likely to be popular with local nature lovers. Flyer printing offers a marketing option that can be budget friendly, produced using materials that are kind to the environment.
This opportunity to learn how to do a good turn for Bala Cynwyd’s feathered friends will be on offer on August 23. The Francis Cope House in Philadelphia will be the location for the lecture, which will begin at 7:00 pm.
