​Birds and Flowers Everywhere! 

Early morning on March 11,2025, nine members of the Lake Charles Garden Club teamed up with Paul Zimmerman and Dale Hamilton of the Gulf Coast Bird Club. The caravan traveled south to explore Peveto Woods Bird & Butterfly Sanctuary in Cameron Parish. 

Club members learned how to scan birds in the sky, treetops, mid-tree, and then on the ground; how to use binoculars and how to use the Merlin App. of bird calls. Storm damaged trees along the coast were observed while identifying many native plants. 
​Over a sack lunch a discussion was held on the importance of saving trees and ground cover as a haven for our feathered friends.

It was noted that planting native trees and flowering plants in our yards provide food for visiting birds and butterflies to feast on. A beautiful and educational day was had by all.
