Native Plants for Birds and Hummingbirds

Julie O'Donald, Community Wildlife Habitat Steward and Master Gardener, will give an
overview of the elements that create beautiful gardens for birds and people. Julie is the team
leader for the Brier Wildlife Habitat Project, a community wildlife habitat with the National
Wildlife Federation.

Please join us on September 23rd for a virtual program night with Julie, as we delve into the fascinating world of creating garden habitat. Julie will emphasize the best native plants for birds and design features that create and sustain bird habitat. Beautiful photography of birds and their food plants will show how to bring nature home to any size property.

Julie has been actively involved in community education and outreach for the Washington
Native Plant Society, Kruckeberg Botanic Garden (bird surveys and tours) and the Adopt-a-Stream Foundation. In addition, Julie's personal certified wildlife habitat garden contains over
200 species of native plants and has been successfully attracting birds, butterflies and
pollinators for more than 25 years. It has been featured in Pacific Horticulture, The Butterfly
Gardener, Bird Watching Magazine and Sunset publications.
