Help Birds Fly South @ Central
Why do birds need help to fly south? At this program you'll learn how you can help birds migrate by changing a few simple things around your home! We'll have some hands-on activity stations provided by the Flight Path grant the library applied for and received. We'll explore how birds know when and where to migrate, which species stay nearby during the colder months and ways to support them.
We'll also welcome Congress of the Birds, a local wildlife rehabilitation group. We'll learn why birds get injured during migration and how we can help them on their journeys.
Flight Path is the first campaign in the new Spark of Science@ My Library initiative. With the goal of sparking curiosity about science and creating a deeper understanding of how science can improve human health and the health of our planet, this initiative is a partnership between the STAR Library Education Network and HHMI Tangled Bank Studios.
