Each year, the Friends of Hagerman invite the public to support the Eastern Bluebird population through our Adopt-A-Nestbox Program. By adopting a nestbox, you’ll help protect these beloved birds and enjoy a front-row seat to their nesting journey.
As an adopter, you’ll have the opportunity to name your nestbox and visit it anytime along the easily accessible Raasch or Harris Creek hiking trails.
Throughout nesting season, nestbox sponsors will receive weekly email updates, including a photo from inside the nestbox and a description of each stage of development—from the first twig in the nest to the fledglings’ big day. An adopted nestbox also makes a wonderful and meaningful Christmas gift!
A $50 donation per nestbox supports the care and maintenance of our impressive Bluebird Trail, which includes 45 nestboxes throughout the refuge.
Join us in helping Eastern Bluebirds thrive—adopt a nestbox today!
Things to Consider While Naming Your Nestbox:
"Nestbox Name" refers to the label you would like on your nestbox, for example: Porter's Perch
Be creative! Your nestbox may house Eastern Bluebirds, Carolina Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, Carolina Wrens or (rarely) Prothonotary Warblers--so try be more inclusive than "Bluebirds" in the label. If left blank, the label will be the gift recipient's name or the purchaser's name if not a gift. NOTE: 15 letters maximum.
The Adopt-A-Nestbox Sale is going on now!!
