Ten nest boxes are located at Bill Cooke Park creating a Bluebird Trail as a conservation effort to ensure the future of the Eastern Bluebird and other native cavity-nesting birds in North Carolina. The nest boxes were built by the older age groups at the 2020 Graham Recreation & Parks Summer Day Camp. The nest boxes are now installed and monitored by Graham Recreation & Parks and the Burlington Bird Club.
Nest boxes are also located at South Graham Park, Graham Regional Park, and Graham-Mebane Lake.
Monitoring has wrapped up for the 2024 season and here are the results from the Burlington Bird Club:
• Bill Cooke Park (10 boxes): FLEDGED 6 tree swallows & 35 bluebirds
• Graham-Mebane Lake & Graham Regional Park (5 boxes): FLEDGED 44 bluebirds
• South Graham Park (3 boxes): TBD
NOTICE: Please do NOT disturb nest boxes or remove nests or eggs. It is a Federal offense to molest or destroy any protected species of wildlife. Protected by Federal Law.
