Colorado Bluebird Project

The Colorado Bluebird Project operates under the guidance of Denver Audubon and is offered through the POST Partners Program in Castle Rock. This volunteer-run project aims to improve the vitality of bluebird populations throughout Colorado and to inform and educate the public about bluebirds.

Volunteers of all ages are recruited in February to assist with monitoring of the nest boxes from April through August. Additionally, volunteers help with maintenance and repair of older nest boxes. All volunteers must register prior to volunteering. 

New volunteers will need to attend both the Open House and Monitor Training to learn project background, species identification, monitoring tips and instructions for entering monitoring data to NestWatch, the online nationwide nest-monitoring program and database maintained by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
