Attendees will learn how to build a bluebird nest box. Participants can also learn about bird biology and conservation basics. Children ages 13 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Materials will be provided.

The workshop costs $5. Due to limited space, registration is required. To register, visit go.illinois.edu/BirdhouseNells.
