Come find out about simple things you can do to create an enjoyable yard that is alive with birds. Why it is important, and what is needed. Roxie will also talk about how you can go about getting started and how to enjoy your yard once the birds are coming. We will even do a short “Bird Sit” via video.
Roxie Jones grew up under the redwoods on 32 acres in the Santa Cruz mountains, so her heart is in the forest. She taught Computer Science for 21 years at Sacramento State University. Since becoming a master gardener in 2013, her ideas about city landscapes have evolved. She started giving talks on native plants and water-efficient, river-friendly landscaping; then sustainable landscaping. Now, she is devoted to supporting wildlife in our yards and urban landscapes. In 2022, she became a Certified California Naturalist.
