Protecting Mountain Bluebirds, Tree Swallows and other secondary, cavity nesters

Calgary Area NestBox Monitors Society

Dedicated to building and posting nest boxes for monitoring and conservation of Mountain Bluebird habitat in Alberta.

Mountain Bluebird populations have been declining over the years from loss of habitat and competition with other bird species. Nest boxes provide a crucial solution to this problem by offering safe and secure places for bluebirds to build their nests, lay their eggs, and raise their young.
