AI Summary

This bill amends existing Massachusetts law to establish Arbor Day and Bird Day as separate observances. It removes references to "Bird" from the existing Arbor Day legislation, and adds a new section establishing May 4th as an annual Bird Day, during which the governor is to encourage the planting of trees and shrubs attractive to birds, as well as the promotion of bird education and birdwatching activities, to highlight the important role that birds play in the ecosystem.
