Spring is here and Tricolored Blackbirds are prospecting colony sites in the Central Valley. Hoping to provide these birds a safe place to grow their families are Kern and Kerncrest Audubon. Our Executive Director Brigid McCormack was on site when the group launched this restoration project back in fall. The group has made a lot of changes to property since her visit. Currently they are planting stinging nettle, mugwort, sandbar willow, wild rose and mulefa.
