Coming Up in December: Nest Box Workshop

Build a Nest Box

Join us for an in-person workshop to “make and take” a Carolina chickadee nest box for your yard!

Want to help our local cavity nesters?

Learn how to build your very own nest box for a Carolina chickadee! In this workshop you will learn about proper nest box placement and mounting, additional information specific to the nesting habits of Carolina chickadees, and other fun facts about this species. We will be building a nest box for a Carolina chickadee, which is a year-round resident North and Central Florida, including Pinellas County.

Registration is required. Presented by Lara Milligan, Pinellas County Natural Resources Agent for UF/IFAS Extension.

The workshop costs $15. If you are attending with friends or family and would like to team up and build one nest box between the group, please only purchase ONE ticket.

Additional Notes:

This program will be held in our auditorium. It takes about 10 minutes to drive from the preserve entrance (Keystone Rd.) to the parking lot, and there is a 2-5 minute walk from the parking lot to the auditorium. Follow signs to the auditorium.

Refunds will not be granted if you cannot install the nest box in your desired location. Nest boxes can only be installed on property you own. If you wish to install on public property, you must acquire written permission.

Interested in learning about how you can help our local cavity nesters before the workshop? Check out this webinar or tune into Lara’s podcast.
