Inviting birds to your back yard is topic of October Audubon meeting

KELSEYVILLE – The Redbud Audubon Society is continuing its educational and informational programs this season.


On Thursday, Oct. 15, starting at 7 p.m. the society will be holding its monthly program meeting at Kelseyville High School Auditorium, 5480 Main St., Kelseyville. The public is invited.


Guest speaker and topic will be Julie Serences who will discuss “Inviting Birds and Wildlife To Your Yard.” Julie Serences is from the Sacramento Audubon chapter and teaches workshops showing people how to become land stewards of their own piece of land by creating habitat for birds and wildlife.


Over the past eight years, Serences worked on a backyard restoration of her own property using California Native Plants.


Through her research and experience, she developed practical knowledge that she now shares with others interested in making their yards and gardens welcoming with food, shelter, and water that birds and animals need.


“With our three-year drought and growing evidence of global warming impacts, more people are seeking to learn about how to make positive changes in their landscaping,” noted Redbud Audubon President Marilyn Waits.


Tina Wasson, Redbud’s vice-president/treasurer, has gathered a valuable selection of Audubon and other free educational materials that will be available at the October meeting.


“Please join us for this important topic,” president Waits urged.


The Redbud Audubon Society is the oldest conservation organization in Lake County. It promotes environmental awareness through monthly educational programs, field trips, and special presentations. The society, along with the Clear Lake State Park Interpretive Assoc. presents the annual Heron Days Wildlife Festival and Wildflower Brunch in April, and is actively involved in many conservation issues facing Lake County and Clear Lake.
