[cayugabirds-l] Habitat Improvement
Hi All, On Sunday (18 April) from about 1-3 pm, the Cayuga Bird Club will be joined by members of the Ithaca High School Green Team to improve bird habitat in Renwick Wild Woods adjacent to Stewart Park. We would love it if more folks came out to help. Wear a mask, bring work gloves. We'll concentrate on removing non-native, invasive plant species tomorrow. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thanks Jody Enck Jody W.
