Overview of Berks’ Birdhouses (Berks’ Bluebirds) March 8, 2015

So basically my team will be working with the Maintenance and Outdoor Staff here on the Berks Campus with our attention focusing on the Eastern Bluebird Birdhouses that are scattered throughout campus. Our job will be to go out and take a look at the condition of the birdhouses in our specific location on campus and clean them and search for any possible damage to them. Then, we will decide if one needs to be replaced or if we need to add another birdhouse in the designated location. In order to properly maintain a\and or build a new one we will have to research the Eastern Bluebird and find our all about their likes/dislikes/preferences, and what kind of habitats are perfect for them and how to best maintain them. After we have gathered all the necessary information we will relay this information to the M&O Staff and take the necessary next steps. After this we will closely monitor the birdhouses and make sure that nothing is wrong or damaged throughout the semester and we can actually see if these Eastern Bluebirds are actually utilizing the houses or are other bird species claiming them for their home.
