Join Manitowoc Public Library and Master Gardeners of Manitowoc County on Thursday, April 9, from 6-7:30 PM, for an evening focused on “Gardening for Hummingbirds,” a program that Kathy and Michael Rock have been giving to countless groups in the Upper Midwest and beyond for going on 15 years. Kathi and Michael will help you learn how to create a sanctuary for hummingbirds in your own backyard. Through the use of perennial and annual plants, wildflowers, shrubs, trees, and hummingbird feeders, you too can discover the magic and excitement of hummingbirds! Their presentation will cover identification of the Ruby-throated hummingbird, ideal habitat, migration, nesting, feeding, importance of water features, and how the elements of the best hummingbird feeders and plants can bring you up close to these special birds. In addition to presenting at the Sedona Hummingbird Festival in Arizona, The Rocks have given their presentation at the Wisconsin Public Television Garden Expo and the Chicago Garden and Flower Show. A few other familiar venues for their program include Wildbirds Unlimited, Audubon Societies, and Master Gardener Clubs.
