Western Bluebirds Have Returned to San Juan Island

Posted: Thu, Feb 4, 2010

Bluebird female-cropAn early spring?  Perhaps it is too soon to tell, but an earlier-than-normal return of the Western bluebird means that spring isn't too far around the corner.  So far, 23 birds have been sighted on San Juan Island, 14 of which are breeding pairs.  The Preservation Trust is embarking on its fourth year of the SJI Western Bluebird Reintroduction Project, and along with our partners, ask for your help in finding any returning birds.  Please report your sightings to Kathleen Foley at 378-2461 or kathleenf@sjpt.org.  To learn more about the effort to reintroduce these beautiful native birds to the San Juans (and to find out how to get involved), click here.
