Bird Oasis Program
The Bird Oasis Program encourages individuals and communities to create bird-friendly habitats .
Gardening for birds is a great way to restore wildlife habitat that has been lost to open space fragmentation, development and adverse landscaping practices. Every yard or property, no matter how large or small, has the potential to become a haven for birds by providing habitat and food in the form of native plants.
