We created a new poster about the "Little Green Places" you can plant for birds. One side shows a cityscape in miniature, illustrating lots of the little green places that support and attract birds. If you look carefully you'll find illustrations of Celebrate Urban Birds' participants and Cornell Lab of Ornithology staff.

To create the poster, Susan Spear, our very own graphic designer took pictures of people, plants, and landscapes and converted them into graphics for the poster. 

The back of the poster lists bird-friendly plants you can put in containers, next to your stoop, or maybe on your rooftop, and gives you ideas for creative uses for these plants. (Plant a sunflower play house or make echinacea tea!)

You can order the Celebrate Little Green Places for Birds poster for $2.50 or download it for free as a PDF HERE.
