Bluebird numbers were once in decline but thanks to the efforts of conservation minded individuals and organizations their numbers have increased. Unfortunately, some Bluebird lovers think they are doing a good deed by simply putting up a nest box in their back yard. That is not the case and often can do more harm than good. Join us for this informative session if you are interested in being a responsible Bluebird ‘landlord’ or just want to learn more about these charismatic and native cavity nesting birds.
In this session we will cover the following:
• Bluebirds 101 – What you should know about Bluebirds and other cavity nesters
• Creating the right backyard habitat
• Choosing and setting up your Bluebird house
• Understanding and Mitigating threats
Please note that there will be two sessions – one on Thursday, November 3rd and another one on Saturday, November 5th. You are welcome at either one or both, however, the information provided will be the same.
