Please join the Brooklyn Bird Club Tuesday, November 17th, 7:00 PM for: *Connecting to Native Biodiversity in the Urban Landscape*
*Presenter: Marielle Anzelone* *Location: Brooklyn Public Library Central Branch <http://www.bklynlibrary.org/locations/central> at Grand Army Plaza* Marielle Anzelone from the NYC Wildflower Week will be presenting their work including plans for a PopUP Forest in Times Square. Their intent is to transform a public plaza in Times Square into a patch of forest with a temporary installation of trees and wildflowers. Marielle is the founder and executive director of NYC Wildflower Week. Her training as an urban ecologist helps her connect people to nearby nature and determine how design, education, and government can promote this relationship. She is also advancing local biodiversity policy. A bill that she helped develop, supporting native plants in public landscapes, became law in 2013. http://www.brooklynbirdclub.org/meetings.htm Dennis Hrehowsik Brooklyn -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
