[nysbirds-l] Huntington-Oyster Bay Audubon Monthly Program

2017-03-14 Thread Stella Miller
The winds are howling and the snow and sleet are pelting down, so isn't this a 
great time to daydream about your spring gardening plans? Join us tomorrow 
night for a special documentary screening of Hometown Habitat and bring your 
dreams even closer to reality.
Date: Wednesday, March 15Time: 7pm SharpLocation: Downstairs meeting room at 
Cold Spring Harbor Library and Environmental Center, 95 Harbor Road, Cold 
Spring Harbor.

Hometown Habitat features renowned entomologist Dr. Douglas Tallamy, whose 
research, books and lectures on the use of non-native plants in landscaping, 
sound the alarm about habitat and species loss. Tallamy provides the narrative 
thread that challenges the notion that humans are here and nature is someplace 
else. “It doesn’t have to, and shouldn’t be that way.” Inspiring stories of 
community commitment to conservation landscaping illustrate Tallamy’s vision by 
showing how humans and nature can co-exist with mutual benefits.
The message: All of us have the power to support habitat for wildlife and bring 
natural beauty to our patch of the earth.
The goal: Build a new army of habitat heroes.
Join us tonight as we screen this documentary and learn just how you can bring 
nature home to your own backyard. 
Check out the trailer here.

field trips, please visit our website.


Stay cozy and warm today!
Best Regards,
Stella MillerPresidentHuntington-Oyster Bay Audubon


"Conservation is sometimes perceived as stopping everything cold, as holding 
whooping cranes in higher esteem than people. It is up to science to spread the 
understanding that the choice is not between wild places or people, it is 
between a rich or an impoverished existence for Man." Thomas Lovejoy
