From the Plaque: “We often think of birds as builders of nests, master craftsmen of twigs, moss and grass, but they are also builders of habitat. Many plant species depend on birds to eat and drop their seeds, which then germinate from the soil - a process called ornithochory. This installation consists of three habitat areas - lawn, shrub and forest. Each area has been planted and is managed differently.” Website: (
