Ozaukee Washington Bird Coalition Meeting: Lake Michigan Bird Observatory

Lake Michigan Bird Observatory with leaders Joanna Demas and Medhavi Ambardar

Join LMBO staff to learn about their Neighborhood Habitat Improvement Program (NHIP). NHIP is an innovative, community-focused program aimed at reducing barriers that residents face in adopting bird-friendly actions. Based on foundational research in ornithology, habitat restoration, and behavior change science, NHIP makes it easier for residents to plant native plants in their yards, take part in community science and support birds. Joanna Demas, director of conservation and partnerships, will give an overview of NHIP and its goals, and discuss the vital role that volunteer community scientists play in the success of the program. Chief scientist, Medhavi Ambardar will discuss scientific research taking place within NHIP to understand relationships between native vegetation and bird reproductive success, and preliminary findings using data collected by community scientists.

This program is offered in-person at the USS Liberty Memorial Public Library in Grafton (address below).
