12 Photos Celebrating the Bond Between Birds and Native Plants

from Audubon
The Plants for Birds category of the Audubon Photography Awards aims to emphasize the flora along with the fauna in each shot—and the entries have only gotten better each year.

The diversity of species in these stunning images is a reminderthat while birds rely on native plants for food, shelter, and nesting, plants and people need birds for pollination and seed dispersal, too. This symbiotic relationship is why planting native species is so important.

Check out the incredible gallery below to learn more about each bird species and the native plant featured.
