Workshops for Wildlife
Our DIY workshops will help you learn what you need to support and protect wildlife in your own backyard! Using simple tools and craftsmanship, participants will get the opportunity to connect with wildlife in a whole new way. Native Plants, Bird House, and Bat House Building workshops will all take place at the Baldwin Wildlife Center (9777 M Street, Omaha). Photography workshops will take place off-site, and participants will ideally have their own photo equipment. However, a limited number of camera kits will be available to rent for the Intro to Wildlife Photography workshop.
