News from the Tree Care for Birds and other Wildlife project
Nesting season is in full swing. It’s time to spotlight our Best Management Practices and remind those hiring tree care providers to include these standards in work contracts. Visitors to our websites can easily locate the full document, or simplified set of guidelines in English and Spanish titled, Preventing Harm to Wildlife During Tree care, as well as a 15-minute training video. But there’s more on the website–downloadable articles for your newsletter, posts for social media; even sample letters to send to your HOA or city officials. Please go to http://treecareforbirds.com. And please “like” our Facebook page.
Best
