We were very pleased to read this on the LACoBirds message board this morning:

Culver City has written language into their Tree Trimming contract specifically protecting birds during the nesting season. The City is also willing to work with local birders who can assist in identifying trees targeted for pruning that may contain nests. The City has agreed to release the dates and the names of the streets where trimming will occur between May-August. If you are interested in helping out please contact me at my NEW email address (see above). You can put in as much or as little time as you want. Non-Culver City birders are encouraged to assist if you have the time and inclination. No prior experience in finding nests required.
