Otsego Land Trust (OLT) is excited to announce it will be hosting John Rogers, co-founder of the NYS Bluebird Society, Thursday, March 31st, at 7:00pm at the Richfield Springs Community Center, 6 Ann St., Richfield Springs.

Mr. Rogers’ presentation encompasses the life history of the Eastern Bluebird, other birds that nest in bluebird boxes, nest box management, and more. The focus is on bluebirds, but John also shares his passion for the natural world in hopes the audience will take in some broader and deeper messages about nature – and life. The program has variety, feeling, and is thought provoking. Sprinkled throughout are just a few wildflowers, butterflies, and quotes by some of the great naturalists of the past. With beautiful photographs, sounds, and a sincere, enthusiastic presentation style, this program is of interest to anyone who appreciates nature.

Mr. Rogers has maintained an extensive trail of bluebird nest boxes in central NY for over 4 decades. He has done bluebird slide programs and workshops for hundreds of groups in 12 states and 2 Canadian provinces, was a co-founder of the New York State Bluebird Society in 1982 and has received numerous awards for his bluebird conservation work, including the John and Norah Lane Bluebird Conservation Award from the North American Bluebird Society.

Event is free and open to the public.  Coffee and pie will be served.
