In The Media

This past spring, I received a call from a reporter at the Bozeman Chronicle. She wanted to do an article on my bluebird trail for the Montana Quarterly magazine. So we took her out and showed her some of the nest boxes and told her what we did. The following week a photographer joined us. Since it was too early for the bluebirds to be nesting, I had to provide most of the photos. John's beautiful photo of a male Mountain Bluebird (with a grasshopper) was the feature photo for the article. It was very well written and I've received so many nice compliments. Here's the link to the article: http://sacajaweaaudubon.org/2012/07/sacajawea-audubon-bluebird-trail-featured-in-article/ Enjoy!

Cramming 10 lbs. into a 5 lb. bag

That pretty much sums up the spring/summer for me. Here's what I did: - Travelled to Ohio/Ontario to see migrating warblers - Led five field trips - Banded 150 mountain bluebirds - Attended three weddings (WA, ID, UT) - Camped in Yellowstone - Went to the state bird festival in Kalispell - Monitored a peregrine falcon nest site - Helped remove and then install the engine and transmission into our Mustang - Started a burdock removal project along local nature trails (for Audubon) And the summer isn't over yet! This is the fastest summer I can ever remember.
