For The Love Of Bluebirds
January 13 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Join us at the Riverbend Environmental Education Center for an event that celebrates our love for bluebirds! If you’re a fan of these beautiful creatures, this is the event for you. Come and learn all about bluebirds, their habitats, and how you can help protect them. This in-person event will be filled with exciting activities, informative talks, and the chance to meet fellow bluebird enthusiasts.
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 backyard. That is not the case and often can do more harm than good.
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
- Volunteer opportunities
- Speaker: Krista Hixon
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. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to connect with nature and show your love for these amazing birds.
See you there!
