Mi Bird-Friendly Communities Lunch & Learn Webinar Series: Cats and Birds

Free-roaming domestic cats kill an estimated 700 million birds each year in the United States. Many of these cats are cared for by well-meaning owners who may not understand the full extent of problems this can create for birds and other wildlife.

Join Michigan Audubon Executive Director Heather Good as she discusses the complicated relationship between domestic cats and birds and some of the solutions to this common problem. This Lunch and Learn can help cat owners and bird lovers alike.

Registration for the Zoom webinar here.

We will also be broadcasting the webinar live through our Facebook page and a recording will be made available following the event.

This event is a part of our Mi Bird-Friendly Communities Lunch & Learn webinar series. Each webinar takes place on the second Tuesday of each month at 12 p.m. and is free.
