Invitation to join us for World Migratory Bird day at the KPL's Central Branch
"Bird Friendly Kitchener invites you to join us on the evening of October 8th at the Kitchener Public Library's Central Branch to mark World Migratory Bird Day.
This is a global day of action and reflection, and our team is excited to present screenings of two incredible films showcasing the challenges our migratory birds and advocates both face.
Our opener is a short film produced by FLAP Canada, "When Worlds Collide" which tells the story of the heartache and dedication bird collision volunteers face during migration in Toronto. Our main feature is Canadian filmmaker Su Rynard's benchmark documentary "The Messenger".
Following our films our special guest Michael Mesure, co-founder of FLAP Canada and current director will join our co-chairs in a discussion and audience Q&A about the state of Canada's birds, birds in urban environments and the work he's been doing for 3 decades.
As Kitchener grows as a city our responsibility as stewards of urban nature increases as well. This is an opportunity to show your support and investment in bird-friendly city work and learn from a national leader in urban bird safety."

Help Your Birds Stock Up on the Season's Best Foods
As summer fades and cooler days creep in, some birds start caching (hiding), food for a later meal. These hidden stashes are their backup plan when natural food sources run low or the weather makes foraging a no-go. You can help your birds, including these little hoarders, by offering high-protein, high-calorie foods that give them the fuel they need. Shop now for the best selection of nutrition-packed options, and turn your feeder into a reliable stop for the birds.
