Have you ever spotted a nest tucked into a shrub, resting on a porch beam, or hidden high in a backyard tree — and wondered who built it?
Join Senior Naturalist Tia Pinney of Mass Audubon for a fascinating Zoom presentation focused on identifying the nests of common backyard species. From cup nests woven into branches to cavity nests in tree trunks and even unexpected human-made structures, this program will explore the incredible diversity of nesting strategies used by birds we see right here at home.
Learn how to recognize different nest types, which species build them, and what clues — materials, placement, timing, and structure — can help you determine “Whose nest is that?” Along the way, we’ll also discuss nesting behavior, habitat needs, and simple ways homeowners can support birds during breeding season.
Perfect for backyard naturalists, families, and anyone curious about the hidden lives of birds in our community.
