[Bluebird-babble] Third Annual Bluebird Open House

[CBPKevin at aol.com]

The Bluebirds are back and so are we!  Come join us for the Colorado Bluebird 
Project's third annual Bluebird Open House on Saturday, March 24th, from 10AM 
to Noon at the Audubon Old Stone Farmhouse (directions below).
 
We'll have presentations 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, $17.50 each)
- 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!
