 Week 2: Native Plants & Birds 

Discover the importance of Native Plants through Grange Insurance Audubon Center's Conservation Classroom. Utilize Audubon resources and eBird to help you find a favorite bird species that depends on native plants (all of them!). Then, find out why native plants aren't just for the birds, but for people too! Plus, create and design your own backyard native plant and bird oasis and learn about native trees.

For more information on Native Plants & Birds, check out Audubon for Kids Week 4, find out Why Native Plants are Better for Birds and People, and check out Audubon's Native Plant Database to determine which native plants are best suited for where you live!
