Backyard Habitat Builders: Spring Nesting Sites for Wildlife February 7, 2010

Backyard Habitat Builder Series includes monthly half-day classes taught by Arboretum Conservation Director Joe Blanton, where participants will learn about and create habitat components for birds, butterflies and other wildlife. The majority of each class will be spent outside as students gain practical experience through a hands-on project completed on the Arboretum grounds. Most classes include take-home items assembled in class. In February’s class, students will learn the importance of providing nesting sites for wildlife and make bird nest boxes and solitary bee houses.
