“Backyard to Back Country: Monitoring Bluebirds at Home and in the Wild,” Trinity Forks Ch., NPSOT

Master Naturalist Jerry Hamby will share his experiences in the LBJ National Grassland, where he and other volunteers maintain and monitor more than thirty eastern bluebird nest boxes. He will also discuss considerations for installing boxes in your own backyard and ways to attract bluebirds while discouraging predators. Through photos from the field, he will trace the nesting cycles of bluebirds and other cavity nesting birds that occupy nest boxes, and he will provide resources for becoming a Cornell Lab NestWatcher. Instructions to access the meeting can be found here. Social time starts at 6:30 p.m., the business portion of the meeting starts at 7:00 p.m., and the presentation follows immediately.
