Kevin, I have six who will be attending the workshop on Sat. We are all from Evergreen (Moonlight Garden Club) and we monitored a trail of 20 boxes last year. Thanks, Deborah Darnell

We'll have presentations and workshops on:
- The Project, our goals and progress over the past year
- The natural history of bluebirds
- Building and mounting nestboxes (and we'll have boxes for sale, both pre-built and in kit form)
- Why it's so important to provide nesting habitat
- How to monitor boxes during the nesting season
- Safeguarding your nestboxes from parasites and predators
- Keeping good field notes and reporting your results
We'll also be showing a 15-minute video that illustrates what really happens inside a nestbox during the nesting season. Even some of our more seasoned nestbox monitors were surprised by what they saw!
The party is free and open to the public. We ask that you RSVP to 303.973.9530 so we'll know how many snacks to bring.
Driving directions to the Audubon Old Stone Farmhouse: From C470 & Wadsworth Blvd, drive south on Wadsworth about 4.4 miles and turn left onto Waterton Road. The entrance to the Audubon Center is about 100 yards on the left, look for the big stone sign "Audubon Society of Greater Denver".
See You There!
