Studying, conserving & restoring the natural range of the Mountain Bluebird in Southern Alberta
There are 2.9 billion fewer birds in Canada and USA than in 1970. Bird population decline is not limited to endangered or species at risk, but includes common species like sparrows, warblers, and bluebirds.
In an attempt to slow or perhaps reverse this decline, the Mountain Bluebird Trails Conservation Society has installed and maintained over 2,700+ Mountain Bluebird nest boxes throughout Southern Alberta, Canada.
Changing the world, one nest box at a time. Learn from our four decades of experience.
Our volunteer team bring years of experience and leadership in conservation best practices. We work with an international network of partners to understand and protect critical habitat of the Mountain Bluebird.
Ready to take the next step?
We are committed to sustaining and researching habitat corridors for breeding populations of Mountain Bluebirds.
We need your help - whether you’re most comfortable outdoors monitoring a Bluebird Trail, want to follow along and learn more to help achieve our advocacy goals, or you simply want to encourage our efforts by donating money to help us grow, we need you on our team.
“Our team of 110+ volunteers maintain a vast network of Mountain Bluebird trails, increasing habitat and restoring the natural range of these beautiful birds.”
— Jim Leitch, President
