A group of BRFAL members and trainees recently gathered at Booker T. Washington National Monument for a Bluebird Monitoring training led by project lead Dick.
Dick provided step-by-step instruction on how to monitor the site’s 16 bluebird houses. Participants took turns opening boxes, checking for nests, and observing activity while learning proper monitoring techniques.
Several boxes contained active nests, and one revealed five eggs. The group took a moment to appreciate the find and the role of ongoing monitoring in supporting bluebird populations.
The chapter has also strengthened its partnership with park staff, who have welcomed the research and expressed appreciation for the role BRFAL plays in supporting bluebird conservation.
Members are encouraged to learn the monitoring process and sign up for shifts during the spring monitoring season.
