Join Alachua Audubon Society on a self-guided tour of some of Gainesville’s premiere backyard birding habitats, where ordinary homeowners have turned their yards into a birding paradise. Learn how to attract birds to your yard using native plants, water features, and feeding stations. Enjoy viewing colorful winter visitors such as Baltimore Orioles in the gardens and feeders of our host homes. Learn ways to help birds by preventing window strikes, providing safe habitat for migration and breeding, and turning off lights during critical seasons.
