Trail Monitoring Guide

by Myrna Pearmen

The aim of the booklet is to encourage more people to become interested in Mountain Bluebird conservation and establishing bluebird trails and also encourage current trail monitors to communicate with each other so that Mountain Bluebird trail data can be compiled from across this bird's range.
There is so much about the life cycle and natural history of the Mountain Bluebird that is still unknown: Where do non-resident Mountain Bluebirds go foe the period of time between fledging and when the bird regroup prior to migration? What are the dynamics of courtship and nest site selection? Do clutch sizes vary geographically, with latitude or altitude, over the course of the breeding season, according to box floor size and/or according to the age of the female. Bluebird trail monitors can contribute significantly, through careful observation and data collection, to our understanding of the ways of the Mountain Bluebird.

Copies of this 64-page booklet sell for $7.00 each, which includes shipping and handling.  To get your, contact your area coordinator or any board member, or they can be ordered by mail for Merchandise
