This Sharp-shinned hawk is looking for prey in our founder's garden in Cambridge, MA. Photographed in November 2010, it is perched in a Betula nigra, or native River Birdh, about 20 feet from the back porch. The photo was actually taken from inside the house.

At Locations in Your Neighborhood
You Convene the Group: We Bring this Workshop to You, Your Friends, and Neighbors
If you care about the ecological value of your garden, are interested in learning more about native plants, and want to better steward this planet with your friends and neighbors, this workshop is for you. Topics covered will be: an explanation of native, non-native, and invasive plants and their roles in our ecosystem; an overview of how to select native plants for different conditions; a summary of ecologically sound gardening practices; examples of interesting and “cool” ecosystem relationships to excite the imagination; and exposure to lots of resources for further use and exploration. We will bring this workshop to your neighborhood with a minimum of 10 participants, on a mutually agreeable date.
Fee: Based on participant numbers and length of program.
