Advanced Training: Bluebirds Are Just the Beginning: All About Thrushes
>>Record in VMS as: AT NGO Workshops and Programs on Wildlife Conservation and Land Stewardship<<
Bluebirds are a delight to observe, with their bright sky-blues, plump little bodies, and cheerful warbling songs. Familiar and lovable, their enthusiastic embrace of nest boxes also makes for an inspiring community conservation story.
Despite their well-earned adoration, bluebirds offer only a tiny glimpse into the wonderful and diverse family to which they belong: the thrushes. There are 194 thrush species worldwide and more than 45 can be observed in the Western Hemisphere, including the familiar American Robin, the stunning Varied Thrush, and the rare and Critically Endangered Puaiohi in Hawaiʻi. Each of them is benefiting from conservation actions by American Bird Conservancy and our partners — and bird enthusiasts like you.
Join American Bird Conservancy on Wednesday, June 17 at 4pm ET to learn more about the fascinating world of thrushes, and how to keep them soaring in our communities — and our hearts.
