Bluebird Nest Box Building Workshop

April 12, 2025 - Sharon, CT

Register

Welcome these delightful neighbors by building your very own nest box! Participants will learn Bluebird ecology, how and where to place their nest box, and how to protect their birds against predators including house cats, House wrens, and European sparrows. The second half of the program will include assembling nest boxes for participants to take home with them. 

This program will be held outside in back of the Director's House on Sharon Audubon property, but participants are encouraged to park in the visitor's parking area near the nature center unless closer access is needed. If this is the case, please contact Bethany directly and she will provide instructions on how to park closer to the Director's House. Please bring your own drill if you have one! Otherwise, staff and volunteers will be circulating with 1-2 and additional tools. 

  • Fee: $35/kit (for a single person or 1 family)
  • Suitable for ages 5+ (and their adults!) 
  • Space is limited and pre-registration is required. 
  • Call 860-364-0520 or email Bethany Sheffer at bethany.sheffer@audubon.org with questions.
