Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary, Topsfield
All species on our planet need habitat—a place to call home. Habitats provide shelter from the weather and predators, a place to raise young, water, and of course food. With over 2,000 acres, the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary is a perfect place to see what birds require for habitat and learn the basics of how you can transform your own landscape into a sustainable habitat for birds. Participants will receive a guided tour of the nature gardens, as well as a list of native trees, bushes, and ground cover that provide food for birds.
