THE JOYS OF BACKYARD BIRD FEEDING

Wednesday, November 15 - 1:00 PM

This program will provide you with the necessary information to make your bird feeding hobby more enjoyable. Topics will include the best food to offer to attract the largest variety of birds, the different types of feeders available, why water and nesting boxes are so important, and, of course, ways to thwart those pesky squirrels!

Jim Walker is the proud owner of Wild Birds Unlimited (WBU), a retail store in Denville, New Jersey which caters to the backyard bird feeding hobby. After a successful 30-year career in the corporate world, Jim pursued his passion for nature and his enthusiasm for backyard birds and opened the doors of his WBU store in 2020. WBU is a 40+ year old franchise whose mission is "Connecting people with nature and doing it with excellence."

WBU is a Retail Partner with the Friends of The Frelinghuysen Arboretum. Members of the Friends receive a 10% discount off all items.

Jim will bring a variety of bird feeders, bird baths, nesting boxes, etc. to show at his presentation.

AT THE FRELINGHUYSEN ARBORETUM

The lovely sunny weather was most welcome following a couple of dreary rainy days. A gorgeous Red Oak is displaying its full fall regalia. The Green Mountain Sugar Maples' leaves are a lovely apricot color. And the grounds behind the Haggerty Education Building are at their peak.
