| Published: February 15, 2011 – 12:11 am
Tune in Friday February 25, 2011 to hear “Restoring Native Prairie” featuring Cheryl Lowe, Land Steward for the Whidbey Camano Land Trust. This segment will air on the local NPR Station KPLU (88.5 FM) at 8:58 am.
BirdNote is a two-minute radio series that airs daily on KPLU Seattle/Tacoma and 50 other public radio stations across the country. About 500,000 listeners hear BirdNote daily. All shows may also be heard at www.birdnote.org on and after their air date.
The BirdNote show combines the power of good storytelling with the rich songs and calls of birds to engage listeners in the lives of birds and the challenges they face. The sounds are provided by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
A recent generous grant from The Lufkin Family Foundation has made it possible for BirdNote to create 100 shows about the state of North America’s birds and highlight the work of individuals and groups who are improving natural habitat. The stories have the power to inspire others to similar action.
Chris Peterson, Executive Producer of BirdNote says, “Cheryl and her team are showing others what’s possible! Whenever habitat is improved, birds and people benefit. We at BirdNote are grateful for the work of Whidbey Camano Land Trust to permanently protect habitat for birds and for what their dedication says about the people of Whidbey and Camano.”
