Have you ever wondered why birds like certain trees? The park is dotted with various species of trees that play a large role in our ecosystem. Birds benefit from different tree species; they use them for many different aspects of their lives. Hungry Mother State Park's volunteer Kevin Sigmon will discuss with us the various benefits that the trees offer birds and how the birds use them as we meander through the main part of the park looking at both trees and birds.
