Jul 17, 2024 		Birds in the ‘Burbs (ASBN SustainabiliTEA #22) – Online Event

Please join us for another ASBN SustainabiliTEA - a time to enjoy some tea (or morning beverage of your choice) whilst having a yarn about a diversity of topics around sustainable and regenerative built environments.

Our upcoming SustainabiliTEA session will be with Dr Jacinta Humphrey, Urban Ecologist and Postdoctoral Researcher with the ICON Science group at RMIT University.

How to improve habitat for native birds in urban areas Australia’s population is steadily increasing, prompting the need for new houses, shops and roads. Whilst these developments are important for our community, they may have a negative impact on the birds that share our suburbs. So, how do birds respond to urban development? Why do some species cope better than others? And what can we do to better support the more sensitive species?

We look forward to hearing Dr Jacinta Humphrey insights on what makes a residential street, urban park or private garden, bird-friendly, whilst sharing space with you all virtually over a soothing cuppa!
