Panel to discuss making urban space avian-amenable

A panel of experts will convene Tuesday, Aug. 31, to discuss the campaign to provide safe passage to migratory birds.

Organizers are working to help Windsor win official designation by Nature Canada as a Bird Friendly City, protecting ecosystems to make urban areas less challenging to traverse.

“We know many folks are worried about wildlife and the news they are hearing about various species and want to listen to experts on how they can help,” says Allison deVries of the Pelee Island Bird Observatory, which is hosting the panel discussion. “It will be educational, specific, and highlight the importance of what we as individual households must to do help our migratory wildlife survive.”

The event will run on the Zoom videoconferencing platform starting at 7 p.m. Find details and register to attend at www.pibo.ca.
