John Denton can put you in touch with individuals in your region that are banding or will help you directly. It is a fantastic experience to hold both the young and old in your hand and to be part of a program that is striving to learn more about bluebird populations and habitats.
If you should come across a dead banded bluebird, please remove the band, flatten it out, tape it to a sheet of paper and mail it to John Denton, P.O. Box 1183, Emigrant, MT 59027. Please mention where you found the bluebird and, if possible, its condition. Include your name, address, phone number and John will contact you. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
A newly devised capture device has increased the number of males captured and banded. This remote controlled system is relatively inexpensive, nearly fool proof, and easy to construct. Bluebirds provide many with unforgettable experiences while watching a young fledge or capturing that elusive male or female. | ![]() photo by Mountain Bluebird Trails, Inc. |
