SUMMARY:Birds and the Spread of Invasive Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, December 1\, 7 pm\nBirds and the Spread of Invasive 
 Plant Species\nPeter Alden\, Naturalist / Birding Expert\n\nAs winter appr
 oaches\, berries and the seeds of invasive plants are an essential food so
 urce for birds. Author and naturalist Peter Alden\, co-founder of the Bio 
 Blitz\, will present the mixed feelings environmentalists have to this phe
 nomenon. We want to support declining bird populations but how to keep the
  new plants from taking over other native species?  Peter will share stor
 ies and photos and welcomes questions.   Here is a signup link if you
  care to join the free webinar.\n\nPeter has a new website\, https://www.
 sparkbirding.com/ with resources for beginning birders.  Why Spark Birdi
 ng?   As the website describes: "Do you recall a time when you were firs
 t fully entranced by the outdoors? Was there a defining moment that transf
 ormed you into a passionate observer nature? This memory was a spark momen
 t."  Read some of these birding spark stories here or submit your own
