This event has ended

Thursday, May 8, 2025 6:00pm - 7:30pm

Norman Bird Sanctuary

$20 Non-Member, $15 Member, Free for bird box adopters

Curious about birds and their nesting habits? Join us for a hands-on NestWatch workshop! You'll discover how to contribute to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s NestWatch program and help scientists study bird breeding biology. Using real-life examples from the Norman Bird Sanctuary’s Bird Box program, you'll learn to monitor nests and gather meaningful data. Plus, we’ll head out for a guided walk to check on tree swallow nests in a nearby field. It’s the perfect blend of science and nature—don’t miss out!

About the Presenter:
Sara Poirier is the Norman Bird Sanctuary Science Coordinator. She plays a key role in overseeing the Bird Box program, ensuring everything runs smoothly. Sara also guides and mentors the Conservation Research Interns, who gather valuable data during the bustling spring and summer months. Sara’s work lies at the heart of the Sanctuary's science and conservation efforts.
