Much of the bluebird’s success is due to the work of citizen scientists building, installing and monitoring bluebird boxes. If you’re inspired to help bluebirds in this way after this talk, you’re welcome to join our Bluebird Project sponsored by the Lyme Land Trust and Lyme Pollinator Pathway! We will have a follow-up workshop to build birdhouses. Stay tuned. Our bluebird volunteers will make at least 2 birdhouses, one for a preserve and one for their backyard. It’s free with all materials supplied. All you have to do is pledge to take care of bluebird box(es) in a preserve(s). It’s a great activity for a solo meadow hike or to do with family and friends. We’ll teach you everything you need to know to help support our bluebird populations!
