In the last five days, two wetlands on private land in Kern county have produced Tricolored Blackbird colonies. Roughly 120 acres in all have nests. The two wetland habitats were flooded with water paid for with last year's Five Dollars / Five Birds campaign and supplemental funding  from USFWS. Last year's campaign was a huge success and Audubon California is seeing the impact a second year makes. Tricolored Blackbirds have an amazing ability to remember prime habitat, which underscores the importance of sustaining this program. We hope you take a moment to give five dollars to save five birds.
