Nesting Songbirds of Ohio

Join Darke County Parks’ summer intern, Aaron Coons, as he discusses his research on the songbird nest box usage, success rate and species involved within a corridor of riparian zone near the Hocking River and adjacent to old farm fields. Aaron will then talk about different types of nest boxes and the pros and cons of different designs that can be used here in Darke County. Find out how you can attract birds to your area through the use of nest boxes. The presentation will be held at the Nature Center at Shawnee Prairie Preserve on Thursday, July 28 at 7pm. After the presentation, join Aaron for a walk around our Bluebird Trail to see which species are using our nest boxes here!
