On May 4th, 2018, our Sierra Club Task Force collaborated with Wild Wings California—a bird rescue located in San Dimas—to relocate and release nine baby hummingbirds back into the wild. These birds were previously hurt by tree pruning and have sine recovered well under the care of Wild Wings California. We released five birds in three separate locations in Diamond Bar.
On April 21st, 2018, our task force participated in Diamond Bar’s Earth Day Celebration at the South Coast Air Quality Management District.
The chair of our task force, Cynthia Robin Smith, gave a talk highlighting the importance of biodiversity at the TEDxDiamond Bar event.
Our Outreach Director, Yuwen Wang, hosted a booth to interact with the local community. In addition to expanding our presence and influence, we also informed our community of the benefits of native gardening and the dangers of tree topping.
