How Can Native Plants Help Birds?

Host Tenijah Hamilton joins volunteers from Georgia Audubon and Trees Atlanta who are planting wildflowers and grasses along an urban rail trail, where she learns how native plants can provide food and shelter for birds within cities. She talks to ecologist Desiree Narango about why birds depend on plants, and how we can transform our backyards and shared green spaces to serve the needs of both people and birds.Related Resources:Check out the Native Plant FinderFind native plants in your region with AudubonResearch native plants in your area with Audubon's Native Plants DatabaseFind an extension office near youRead "Why Garden with Native Wildflowers?" on the US Forest Service's websiteAttract Birds: A Dozen Native Trees And Shrubs That Birds LoveVisit the website for Trees AtlantaVisit Georgia AudubonConnect with BirdNote on Facebook, Instagram and TwitterSign up to receive BirdNote's weekly newsletterBirdNote is an independent nonprofit media production company.
