As warmer temperatures begin to arrive and we spend more time outdoors, we hear the many familiar sounds of spring, including the songs of our returning migrant birds. At this time of year, American Bird Conservancy (ABC) often gets asked how people can help birds. Toward that end, ABC has identified the top ten things people can do to aid or protect declining birds in their homes and yards.
Plant and Be Counted
The Marylanders Plant Trees Program offers instant savings when you purchase a new tree from a participating nursery. The state program from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources offers a $25 coupon to purchase any native tree that costs more than $50. There is no limit on how many coupons you use, and you can download the coupon from the Marylanders Plant Trees Web site, www.trees.maryland.gov. For more information contact: Scott Hymes, 410-260-8746.
