In recent years the Eastern Bluebird has made a dramatic recovery due to nest box installation throughout the country. There is still a shortage of nesting cavities in many locations. Our goal is to install bluebird nesting boxes in 38 counties in South Alabama and to develop a plan to manage and maintain them. The future well being of birds and their habitat seems quite often to be on shaky ground. We feel an urgency about helping young people understand the importance of conserving and improving bird and wildlife habitat and conserving all our natural resources.
SABA members visit school campuses to lead field trips and discuss birds with students.
The school is presented with an assortment of bird books and other material and 5 birdhouses are installed on the campus. Many SABA Members are highly informed and entertaining speakers. They volunteer their time and talents to present programs and seminars for Garden Clubs, Civic Clubs, Girl and Boy Scout Troops, and other clubs and organizations. To arrange a program for your club contact SABA President Charles Kennedy. Time Contributions of any amount are appreciated and will be used entirely to support one of our projects.
