"Bringing Nature Home" 

Saturday, March 13th,  1:00 p.m. Sanibel Library

We have one final program this year. Audubon hosts Doug Tallamy to speak on the critical importance of insects and native plants.  Tallamy is currently Professor and Chair of the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology at the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware. Chief among his research goals is to understand the many ways insects interact with plants and how such interactions determine the diversity of animal communities.

Doug Tallamy makes a compelling case and offers a simple solution that anyone with a patch of earth — no matter how small — can follow: Make a contribution to biodiversity by choosing native plants. Bringing Nature Home passionately argues that it isn't too late to save ecological communities, and that we all have a significant role in the process. If you want to create ecosystems with a diversity of animal species, we first have to encourage a healthy diversity of plants. It’s simple: By gardening with native plants — no matter where you live or how small or large your space is — you can help sustain wildlife.

Join Sanibel-Captiva Audubon for this year’s Audubon Science on Sanibel and learn more about how we can support the natural world.
