Good Water Master Naturalists: Eastern Bluebirds

The Round Rock Public Library and the Good Water Chapter of the Texas Master Naturalist Program present Eastern Bluebirds from 2 to 3 p.m., Saturday, March 8, Round Rock Public Library, Meeting Room A+B.

Between the 1930s and 1970s, the Eastern Bluebird started to disappear from the fields and trees of Texas. They faced fierce competition for nesting sites from other birds, especially the invasive House Sparrow. Half a century later, these beautiful birds have rebounded across the state–thanks to the work of people like you! Join Christie Gardner of the Good Water Master Naturalists to learn more about local efforts to preserve and protect the Eastern Bluebird.
