For the Birds!

Bluebird Nest Box Building Workshop

Saturday September 24, 1 to 3 pm

Be a part of the wonderful bluebird success story of conservation and citizen science! Join the Osoyoos Desert Centre for a hands-on bluebird nest box building workshop. The workshop includes step-by-step instruction to build your own take-home nest box. Participants will also learn about bluebird ecology, life cycle, and the recovery of declining populations, as well as how to install your nest box and monitor it for eggs and fledglings. The event is open to family members of all ages and participants may work to build their nest boxes as a team or on their own. All materials provided. Please bring a Robertson #2 electric drill/screwdriver. After the workshop, participants are invited to tour our brand new 1.5 km boardwalk and interpretive building at the Centre.

Registration is required. Limited space available.

Fee is $20 per box.
